Ernani Aguiar - Operatic Works

Famous quotes containing the words operatic and/or works:

“Even an extraordinary policeman seems a strange suitor for an operatic soprano. Does he sing?”
—Eric Taylor, and Leroux. Arthur Lubin. M. Villeneuve (Frank Puglia)

“That man’s best works should be such bungling imitations of Nature’s infinite perfection, matters not much; but that he should make himself an imitation, this is the fact which Nature moans over, and deprecates beseechingly. Be spontaneous, be truthful, be free, and thus be individuals! is the song she sings through warbling birds, and whispering pines, and roaring waves, and screeching winds.”
—Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
