Subject: Opera on the Organ, Anyone?

I would like to ask those of you who are knowledgeable on opera for your
opinion.

An esteemed organization of organists would like to put on a concert
utilizing singers and do a recital of opera arias and duets.

I am not too keen on the idea - but I was wondering if any of you out there,
have ideas on repertoire (arias/duets) that would lend itself (tastefully) to
organ accompaniment. The singers would be a lyrico spinto soprano, lyric
tenor, & lyric baritone. The organist would be first rate.

Any ideas or BAD IDEA?
