Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Song: E Lucevan Le Stelle
Song: Vesti La Giubba

Opera: Tosca, and Pagliacci

I love them all I cry every time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

La Boheme- Puccini
I Pagliaci- Leoncavallo
Le nozze di Figaro-Mozart
La Traviatta- Verdi
Eugen Onegin- Tchaikovsky

Extraordinary music, story lines that any human being can relate to, and different periods of music history represented in each one (except Boheme and Pagliaci!.!.!. they were composed about the same time) Anyway these are some of my favorites!. There are so many more!.!.!. and if you want to cry find a recording of I Pagliaci with Del Monico as Canio singing "vesta la giuba"!.!.!. read the translation, get a gist of what is happening in the opera at that time, listen, and I promise you'll cry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
