Figaro has one of the most thrilling overtures of all time.

Not just that, but "Sull Aria" after Shawshank Redemption has gotten the recognition it deserves. "Voi Che Sapete" is a great one. I'm working on "Deh, Vieni non tardar", IMO one of the most beautiful love arias ever written. There's so much there. And we, the singers, love it above all - even La Boheme. That says something.

I downloaded 'Cosa mi narri' onto iTunes after hearing it in The Shawshank Redemption. Very, very nice.
