Opera: The Barber of Seville by Rossini

This opera is based on Pierre Beaumarchais's comedy Le Barbier de Séville (1775), which was originally an opéra comique, or a mixture of spoken play with music. The score that I’m going to put here is about a barber. How busy he is, right from his shop until closed and he is proud to be as a barber. I think the character is gay lor..hahaha….below clip is with its translation and the song in English translation as well

Make way for the factotum of the city,
Hurrying to his shop since dawn is already here.
Ah, what a fine life, what fine pleasure
For a barber of quality!

Ah, bravo Figaro!
Bravo, bravissimo!
A most fortunate man indeed!
Ready to do everything
Night and day,
Always on the move.
A cushier fate for a barber,
A more noble life, is not to be had.

Razors and combs,
Lancets and scissors,
At my command
Everything's there.
Here are the tools
Of my trade
With the ladies...with the gentlemen...

Everyone asks for me, everyone wants me,
Ladies, young lads, old men, young girls:
Here is the wig...
the beard is ready...
Here are the leeches...
The note is ready...
Here is the wig, the beard is ready,
The note is ready, hey!

Figaro! Figaro! Figaro!, etc.
Ah, what frenzy!
Ah, what a crowd!
One at a time, please!
Hey, Figaro! I'm here.
Figaro here, Figaro there,
Figaro up, Figaro down,
Swifter and swifter, I'm like a thunderbolt:
I'm the factotum of the city.
Ah, bravo Figaro! Bravo, bravissimo,
You'll never lack for luck!


You see from the lyrics translation, this barber name Figaro damn famous!





Another short clip from The Barber of Seville opera play, this 1 the actor seems hotter horr..



Personally I prefer Italian who sing opera, mainly because they have richer voice and not to mention Italian are damn hot!!! But below opera artist really take my breath away!.... I hardly can breath in the whole clips. Calvin, if you wanna click play, fasten your seat belt!
