Opera is an elevated style of musical theatre that is defined by the age of Mozart from around 1775-1910. Light opera is a less demanding form of opera. It may incorporate spoken words and usually appeals to a broader audience. However, it still requires operatic voices and a live orchestra. Musical theater is something such as a broadway thearter where music is interspersed with dialogue. It can be less demanding vocally and can be performed by singing actors.
2. How long does it take for someone to have a fully trained operatic voice?
A person is not to their peak performance until the reach the age of 30. Their control of breath is imperative. Opera stars are notoriously demanding.
3. Choose an Opera by Puccini? Describe and interpret.
While listening to Tosca by Puccini, I am able to hear many stron and powerfull notes being sung by a male. After looking more closely at the opera, I was able to see that the singer had great control of their voice in order to complete this song in such a great and powerfull way.
