I was sitting in my lounge chair and I kept nodding off, (I am in my mid 70's) thankfully, your most beautiful arias woke me up! I thoroughly enjoyed them, especially being sung in different languages. I look forward to more.

Music and Art always go together. Love these paintings as it gives serenity and calmness like the songs😂

Las interpretaciones impresionantes...pero, las pinturas que acompañan cada una de las esplendidas Arias: MAGNÍFICAS.

For the first time in my life, words and translation of magnificent music and performances heard against lovely (original?) images which illustrate mood and character perfectly. My Italian has improved greatly. Thank you.
