Description: Full length arrangements of some of the greatest operatic arias and choruses, often in the original key signature, this allows students to play along with opera recordings and prepare to learn orchestral excerpts. These pieces can be used to focus on articulation, vibrato and expression in general. A favorite of students because many of the tunes are heard on television commercials. The arias include: “Li ci darem la mano,” “Gypsy chorus” from Carmen, “Nessun Dorma” from Turandot, and “Celeste Aida.”
