Follow @bestofopera.en for the voices that refuse to be forgotten. 🎵 "Lose Yourself" - "Maria Fiselier" September 2018, Beste Zangers, a Dutch TV show. An opera singer arrives to sing Eminem. Maria Fiselier is Dutch, born in 1988, a mezzo-soprano: the female voice lower than the soprano's. In 2018 she was a soloist at the Komische Oper in Berlin, an opera house. It is as an opera singer that she enters the show. Then she sings "Lose Yourself." She sings Eminem's lyrics and turns into a rapper. Her colleagues react: "Who are you and what did you do with Maria?" The opera singer they knew left the scene. The one on stage was someone else. That other Maria has over 7 million views on YouTube. Would you have recognized Maria? 🎼 Work: Lose Yourself (soundtrack of the film "8 Mile," 2002) 🎹 Composer: Eminem 🎤 Performer: Maria Fiselier 🇳🇱 🎬 Recording: Beste Zangers, Dutch TV, September 2018 Show it to someone who thinks opera is boring. #BestOfOpera #MariaFiselier #Eminem #MezzoSoprano

Follow @bestofopera.en for the voices that refuse to be forgotten. 🎵 "Five generations of mezzos, one Habanera. Which Carmen seduces you?" - Anna Caterina Antonacci, Elīna Garanča, Agnes Baltsa, Anita Rachvelishvili, Teresa Berganza Watch all five, then comment 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5: the generation number on the scoreboard. 🎭 The Habanera comes from Bizet's Carmen, which premiered at the Opéra-Comique in Paris on 3 March 1875 to a cold reception. A Paris revival in 1883 brought the success. All five mezzos sing the same opening line: "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle, que nul ne peut apprivoiser." ✨ The numbers go by generation, oldest to youngest, as on the scoreboard. Antonacci (3, 1961) sings it at the Royal Opera House with Jonas Kaufmann as Don José. Garanča (4, 1976) sings it in Richard Eyre's production at the Met, from the 2010 Live in HD broadcast conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin. Baltsa (2, 1944) made her Met debut in 1979 as Octavian. Rachvelishvili (5, 1984) sings it at the Met, in Eyre's production. Berganza (1, 1933) first sang Carmen at the 1977 Edinburgh Festival under Claudio Abbado. 🎤 The Habanera is not Bizet's tune. It adapts "El Arreglito," a habanera by Sebastián Iradier published in 1863. Bizet thought it was a folk song and credited the source in the first vocal score once he found out. Five generations, from 1933 to 1984. Which Carmen seduces you?
