do you too completely and utterly lose every last bit of your sanity at the way he delivers that or egli viva e di mia man poi muoia or are you normal

#ettore bastianini #la forza del destino #i havent thirsted for him publicly in too long. #his carlo di vargas just does things to me that no other role is quite capable of doing. #(looking at the 'ella morrà' moment from the 1965 recording with corelli...... christ) #anyway when i say i hate all men - it is never. NEVER. about bastianini. please always keep that in mind. #anyway miky made me listen to dfd's verdi recordings again and i had to listen to bastianini as a therapeutic emergency #or i would have offed myself frfr 💀 #rossini girlies....... time to rethink your life choices. it is not too late yet. remember this is what you're losing..... #opera tag #verdi #im also losing it at thet dramatic spin at the end skdhsjshddb god im obsessed with him

In case I still had any lingering thoughts about paying good money to see the new Met La forza at the movie theater this weekend, this crushed any sliver of possibility.

alvaro's entrance really is one of the most 'Here I Am, A Tenor, Listen To Me, A Tenor, Tenor' entrances

sorry for reblogging that poll twice with different tags i just think the comedic potential of the opera night is limitless. The Gang Gets Together To Kill Olafs Parents. But It's Fine We Hate Him Anyway. Loser. be it when they are all tweens or hauling people out of retirement/self-imposed exile we are all in on wrecking olafs shit. he was the only one with parents in a friend group made entirely of orphans who made being an orphan their whole personality. as far as the rest of the sbg is concerned he had this a long time coming

#la forza del destino #asoue #pipbellerophon #i dont remember is esme is an orphan and it doesnt matter rn

Representative of the purest Spanish nobility, the three Vargas men are, without exception impulsive, aggressive, hot-headed, and concerned far more with upholding their version of the rancid honor code than they are with establishing the truth or with honoring the bonds of human love.

Once Don Carlos discovers that Don Fadrique is in fact Don Álvaro, he never wavers from his resolve to kill him, even though Don Álvaro is now his closest friend.

[He’s] unaware of the irony of his blind acceptance of the honor’s code demand for blood vengeance, even if it means slaying a man to whom he owes a debt of gratitude for having saved his career, and perhaps even his life.

He is deaf to Álvaro entreaty to end the Vargas vendetta by honoring destiny’s plan for a bond between the two men, to be sealed by Álvaro’s marriage to Leonor.

The more profound betrayal is a cultural one. In marrying an Incan pincess, Álvaro’s father has transgressed the social and cultural norms of the Spanish honor code - a code that might overlook discreet sexual alliances with members of the “inferior” races and classes, but that would never forgive the exogamy and miscegnation represented by marriage to a mate of another race, another culture, another world. Álvaro, like his mother, cannot ever make any claims to holding honor, not because of his actions, but because of what he is: necessarily, inevitably, and perpetually an outsider.

Joyce Tolliver's introduction to the English translation of Don Álvaro o la Fuerza del sino by Ángel de Saavedra

La forza del destino by Francesco Maria Piave and Giuseppe Verdi

#Don Álvaro o la Fuerza del sino #La forza del destino #opera tag #I had fun doing this! Probably I'll add some quotes about Leonor/Leonora later

[tizianacerralovetrainer]

Abbi pazienza.

Abbi fede nei momenti di fatica, sconforto, solitudine.

Resta calma quando ogni cosa è aggrovigliata, o sfugge e non torna. Una cosa è l'impegno, altra cosa è invece l'accanimento. Tu rimani aggrappata alla vita, ciò che deve andare: lascia che vada.

Sii saggia, impara a discernere.

Abbi il coraggio di avere a che fare con il buio. Come un seme d'inverno nella terra. Resta. Con la fiducia che la luce arriva. Sempre.

Ora è il momento di radicarsi.

Abbi pazienza, alcune cose - semplicemente - la richiedono. Che stare nelle cose non è subire passivamente, ma essere incubazione di vita sapiente che conosce il tempo dell'azione e lo rispetta.

Sei natura: sii natura.

Ricorda che ogni cosa è ciclica, ogni cosa per rinascere deve morire; che ogni stato è impermanente.

Con grazia ora osserva, nota, impara. Permettiti di evolvere.

Abbi "una selvaggia pazienza". Dedicati.

Presto ci sarà una nuova primavera. Fidati di me, che ti scrivo dall'ennesima.

OK folks. It's time to get serious. I, Vera d'Auriac, smut producer and purveyor, do solemnly swear that if La forza beats La clemenza in this round of the Opera Bracket, by the end of this calendar year, I will produce a smutty, smutty fanfic of Don Alvaro and Don Carlo di Vargas.

So, vote La forza and tell all your friends to vote La forza. There is now smut riding on the outcome.

Vote for La forza here.
