Who is your favorite composer of Opera or Art Song?
I've never really liked opera, but I'd go with Wagner. A bit heavy for someone who
isn't an opera fan, but he's the only operatist I'm familiar with, albeit mainly on an intellectual rather than artistic level). I have seen the whole Ring cycle through, and would have enjoyed it if it had been half the length in time.
Do you prefer German or Italian opera?
