Organically Orgonasova



The elusive Slovak soprano Luba Orgonasova was caught singing the soprano part in the Verdi requiem at Music Festival Montreux in 1998. One of the best rendition of the Libera me section I've heard. She is accompanied by Paul Daniel & the Orchestre National de Lyon and the Choeur philharmonique de Prague.

Earworms: Pace, pace....

I ventured out to Embarcadero Marina Park South by the San Diego Bay over the weekend. It was so nice and peaceful... I snapped this shot from the walkway just behind the Convention Center and this bit of music just popped up in my head (there's almost always music playing in my cranium).
It's 'Agnus Dei', from Part V of Verdi's Requiem; a duet in octaves between the soprano and the mezzo. The music tract here is an air-check from the 1998 Music Festival in Montreux - Vevey, Switzerland. The soloists are Luba Orgonasova (Sopran) and Vesselina Kasarova (Mezzosopran). Paul Daniel conducts L'Orchestre National de Lyon and Choeur Philharmonique de Prague.
