tessajanuary picked Giacomo Puccini:
I'm sure I have left some important names off this list, so please feel free to add answers!

My favorite opera composer has to be Puccini, although I love Mozart, Verdi, and Wagner very much as well.

Smorg picked Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart:
Hiya. I'm a die hard Mozart (and the bel canto guys) fan... Though, if anything, I'd add Handel to the list. Thanks for the question! :o)

tessajanuary picked Giacomo Puccini:
Ah, good idea Smorg. He is added!
I do love Mozart, but I like Puccini's full body of operas better than Mozart's.

Katreader picked Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart:
This was a hard choice-I picked Mozart as he was my favorite to sing. I always had more difficulty with Puccini-although I love his work too!

I love the tragedy of all Verdi operas. My second choice is Donizetti, who makes me laugh AND cry!

Sunline picked Georges Bizet:
To me Bizet's Carmen would have to be one of the best operas I have heard/seen. Aida would be next so second is Verdi and only saw La Boheme when I was younger but apparently loved it so then Puccini.
