Dear List: Can anyone help with either a list of Arias in English for lighter than lyric voices ..more lyric coloratura. I have come up with about 5. she is not a Baby Doe type.. nor is she old enough for Vanessa. ARe there lists of operas with lyric with agility arias. in English. Have suggested the arias from Ghosts of Versailles - don't know if it is in print; Britten - Helena's aria from Midsummer Night's Dream; tried to think of any other Carlisle Floyd pieces but i think they are more lyric. There is an opera by Argento which I cannot remember - the aria is the Woman with the Hat. help/
And further is there a way to create a database of arias possible by voice type?? does anyone know of a list like this. ?? Thanks so much.
