#TuneTuesday is all about #MyPreciousMusic this week - the physical copies of our favourite music. I'm going with this homemade compilation that was my introduction to the music of Chris Knox, which was sent to me by someone I met on Usenet back when I was in university. While I don't listen to the actual tape anymore, and I own all the albums that these songs come from, I do have this set up as a playlist and listen to it from time to time.
@sheepnik Was able to get two of my favourite opera productions on DVD. I listen to Il Trovatore more than watch it because the plot is a toxic mess but the music is one glorious duet after aria after trio after chorus after another with hardly any filler and these singers & conductor are magnificent with it.
The Barber staging is witty and full of small additional details, music is superb fireworks, and Rossina & Figaro are played as BFFs in shenanigans.
