I need to dive into more of this stuff when I'm not performing it; I just went on a Messiah binge the last two weeks because I was singing "The People That Walked In Darkness" at a recital on Tuesday and I am on the verge of a full-on opera binge starting with Mahagonny because the company I used to perform with is dissolving as of Jan 1.

Rameau - Hippolyte et Aricie, Dardanus, Platée

Dardanus is beautiful, need to finally hear Platee. I want to get into the earlier Italian operas too: Monteverdi, Caccini, et al.

Bought myself the new Riccardo Chailly set of Beethoven Symphonies on Decca as a birthday present.
