This week’s theme is French Opera Today we’re listening to “Va! Laisse couler mes larmes”, an aria from Act III of the French opera Werther (vair-Tair) by Jules Massenet. Frederica von Stade is singing the role of Charlotte (shar-LOT) here and she gives us a window into her character’s struggle with being strong and loyal and being human. Frederica (“Flicka”) and French music are truly a match made in heaven.
Beautiful
Fabulous.
Magnifique. Merci
