Welcome to Bel Canto Heaven. This group is devoted to discussions of the tradition of bel canto in opera. Any and all issues relating to bel canto singing technique, singers, composers, operas, influences, etc. are welcome for discussion. Most importantly, this group will serve as a forum for the sharing of sound clips as illustrations of bel canto singing. Please share your love of singing and the bel canto tradition freely - hopefully this group will give us all a chance to learn!
