Question:Der Holle Rasch. Gotta be.

At least to listen to.

Being a bass it's a bit hard for me to sing it.

But to sing it's probably any one of Sarastro's Arie.

Not my favorite but here's a killer version of
Der H?lle Rache (Queen of the Night from the magic Flute -Mozart)

For soprano - Marietta's Lied from Die Tote Stadt (Korngold) for Tenor - E Lucevan le stelle, for Bass - O Isis und Osiris, and for Mezzo-soprano Voi che sapete, o Mamma, from Cavalerria Rusticana

My favorite to sing is "Ruhe Sanft" from Zaide by Mozart. It's not done quite as often, and it combines a good mix dramatic malismas and luscious melody.
