Hi hopefully people will start sharing their views on operas/ opera singers and composers. To start off I'd like to say that that my favourite opera singer is Pavarotti. Although he doesn't have the biggest or greatest voice in the world I feel that his technique is unrivalled. I feel the best voice opera has ever heard in modern times is Franco Corelli (hope I’ve spelt it correctly). Does anyone use the technique of controlling the ego?

Can I just make a point that open passagio singing is not dangerous if done correctly? Take Pavarotti for example. A true legend at opening on that most magical of all notes, the gateway to heaven F#.
