If you can think of more arias to add to the thread, Burning Down, that would be great because I'm getting close to the end of the ones I know.

Below is my favorite operatic aria of all:

"Marietta's Lied" from the Opera "Die Tote Stadt" by Korngold
Kiri Te Kanawa - Soprano
Tender and beautiful with a lovely message of hope that I wish were true
(Lyrics translated from German into English: http://www.aria-database.com/transla...02_marlied.txt)
