Personal Favourite Opera?
Mine would have to be, Guilbert & Sullivan compositions. I find their music easy to listen to, and usually jolly. My sort of thing.
What is yours?
With Regards...

I like Gilbert & Sullivan too, though they're actually more operettas than operas, I think. I played Cousin Hebe in HMS Pinafore in the 8th Grade, which was really fun. As for my favorite opera, it would be Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) by Mozart.

I LOVE the HMS Pinafore! But as for my favorite musical I'll have to go with the first one I ever heard: Beethoven's Fidelio.

I'd go with Puccini as well, but I'd pick Turandot. It gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it, especially when Pavarotti played Kalaf. Paul Potts can pack up and go home.

Probably The Magic Flute...other favourites include Monteverdi's L'Orfeo, The Marriage of Figaro and Purcell's Dido & Aeneas. I also plan to immerse myself in the works of Wagner at some point...at the moment I only have a highlights set, but I'll try to get the full Ring cycle at some point.
