Subject:  Re: [vocalist-temporary] What is this piece?


Hi there,
The piece is "Mesicku na nebi hlubokem," and I have been
informed that it is Rusalka's song to the moon, known in
English as 'O Silver Moon' (from Rusalka by Dvorak). I'm
going to order the music from Classical Vocal Rep tomorrow
bright and early :) I found a translation through the aria
database, although I'm now grappling with prnounciation.
I'd really like to sing the piece in the original language.

Thanks for replying :)
