This aria is the most beautiful song of sorrow for any mother who has lost a child. I hope someday someone would sing it for me and I would be grateful for the understanding. I do not listen to it often so as to keep it sacred. That is what we must do with precious experiences.

@jamiethebandgeek thanks for the reply. It's interesting to see how different venues react- ROH seems restrained in its reactions whereas the Met and Paris are more emotional. La Scala and Barcelona seem to be the most enthusiastic!

in my experience, the end of the opera. Usually there isn't space written in for applause so the action keeps happening and if applause occurs, the audience misses something.
With classical stuff, no applause in between or in middle of pieces. "save it for the end" is what I often hear. When its musical theatre or more contemporary stuff then applause after pieces is often okay.

@Jaydoggy531 Interesting. I agree with you that Puccini seemed to be writing 'pop songs' in the operatic sense. May I pick your operatic brains? Puccini's "La fanciulla del west" seems to have more of a continuous style, different from his other big hits. Why was this?.
