Anna and Krista decided to watch the Benoit Jacquot production of Massenet's Werther (aka Farter) from 2016 to see how another tenor approached the role of the Emo King. The inevitable comparison to Jonas came about, as well as calling out Vittorio Grigolo for lack of emo yeeting. Along the way they discussed drag performers, LGBTQ+ rights, email sign offs and Sylvester Stallone's porn movie. It's Candy Mountain, Farter!
Definitely not in my range, but this 2007 Vittorio Grigolo's debut song really captute the beauty of Italian singing and romantic lyric. Grattia Tutte

Love at first sight is not just a cliché of romantic comedies: more than half of all Americans say they’ve experienced it. Can this explain the timeless appeal of Puccini’s La Bohème?

Even before Rigoletto's Venice premiere in 1851, Verdi knew that "La donna è mobile" would be a huge hit. He instructed the orchestra members not to whistle or sing the melody, and he even waited until the very last moment to give the music to the tenor. Verdi wanted to ensure that the third-act aria characterizing the Duke of Mantua's licentious treatment of women would have maximum impact on an unsuspecting audience. The opera was an immediate smash hit. It was one of the first of Verdi's operas to establish him as a great international composer, and its many memorable melodies still reverberate in opera houses across the globe. On this episode of He Sang/She Sang, we speak with Tony Award-winning director Michael Mayer, who created this "Rat Pack" version of Rigoletto that opened at the Met in 2013. Updated to a 1960 Las Vegas casino setting, Mayer tells us that Frank Sinatra was the original model for the Duke of Mantua. We also speak with soprano Olga Peretyatko, who is performing the role of Rigoletto's strong and self-sacrificing daughter, Gilda. Listen to learn more about Verdi's tragic jester.
