For Opera Lovers, a Worldwide Web Cycle
By PETER DIZIKES

. . . And for some aural history, readers can listen to singers from earlier in the century at a Web site run by an idiosyncratic singer named Carlton Higginbotham.

This site (www.bassocantante.com) has good audio clips of many famous voices, including Enrico Caruso and Marian Anderson.

Opera Shop Great voices of the past: photos and sound clips of opera singers active before 1950
Choral Art A different choral concert every month
Concert Hall Unusual and/or historic instrumental performances
Flapper! Popular music and other foibles of the 1920s (give or take a decade)
Author A little something about me. See my mug. Hear me sing.

All graphics, including backgrounds, are Bassocantante originals
