Welcome to my blog

Welcome all you readers out there to my opera blog. This blog is about my own passion; opera. I love Opera. To me, opera is the best among all art forms. I could easily say that I listen to classical music, particulary opera for more than 2h/day.

The first time I was exposed to the wonderful world of opera was at Christmas 2002. I was only 12 years and I've recieved a record player as a gift.
Finally I had the chance to listen that I've chosen myself. I started search in my father's album collection (just for fun) and by chance I found an album collection with the covertext "Parsifal" ( the last opera of Richard Wagner). I put the first cd in the record player and the magic of Wagner's music came out from the speakers.
It was the ouverture to the first act. The marvelous and dwelling ouverture in A flat major. I still recall to this memory today. Because it was such an emense experience. Never before have I listened to better music and great singers such as Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Rene Kollo and Christa Ludwig.
Since my first encounter with the operatic world my own interest expanded to the state I'm in today. You could say that I'm an operajunkie.
