Learn with an Opera Singer: “Caro mio ben” - Lesson 3: Learning the language

Are opera singers polyglots? While singers aren't always fluent the language they are singing in, they do know how to sing in various languages! Tenor Addison Marlor tells you his tips and tricks in learning the meaning of an aria as well as proper diction.
Before you begin, make sure you know your breathing techniques. Soprano Grace Kahl explains how to breathe like an opera singer here: bit.ly/2xLCVMj

Okay...you are actually quite right about the vowels and consonants. Buuuuut there are quite a few words where the vowel "o" morphes into the vowel "ah". For example the word "tesoro" is actually pronounced "tesahro". This is quite important for singers who study bel Canto music.
