October 25, 200916 yr A couple weeks ago in my voice lessons my teacher discovered that can sing countertenor, which is kinda cool :). I am having trouble finding arias and songs for countertenor, it would be great if I could get some suggestions!? Thanks!
October 25, 200916 yr All the alto arias from Messiah are awesome! "O Thou that Tellest" is one of my favorites.
October 25, 200916 yr "Ombra mai fu" is occasionally sung by countertenors. Arias from Britten's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" - since Oberon's a countertenor role. I've heard "Voi che sapete" sung by a countertenor. It's pretty good that way.
January 22, 201016 yr My goodness there are a TON of countertenor pieces from Handel, Bach and other baroque era composers. I think in particular the Bach Cantata BWV 22 could be sung by countertenor.
