March 19, 201015 yr I think I'd like a high proportion of his own work. So, if he wrote one opera style (as in the AT show), 2 musical theatre type and 3 in a style I see as him, I'd be happy. 2 or 3 covers would be OK too. That'd make at least 15 tracks and I'd be pleased with that. edited to add, I think 'Impossible Dream' should be one of the covers. Edited March 19, 201015 yr by megham
March 19, 201015 yr To be eligible for the classical charts, it would have to be 60% classical. I've no idea how they decide whether original songs meet the criteria. I suppose it depends on whether Darius wants to be seen as a classical crossover singer or not. If he does, he may have to put less original material on the next album. I hope we don't have to wait too long to find out but until we do, maybe we should keep an eye on what he sings at events and gigs like Marie Curie UK's.
March 19, 201015 yr I agree about The Impossible Dream. I'll be very disappointed if that's not on the album. I'm just concerned they might not want to put it on because it was on Rhydian's album. Lots of classical acts have a song/aria with which they are always associated. I definitely think that Darius (and Rolando) made a real impact with it on PSTOS. It's a bass baritone song and Darius sings it with great emotion. Rolando was right when he pointed out how appropriate the song was for Darius's story.
March 19, 201015 yr ....... and whenever he does achieve what was thought by others to be impossible for him, he strives for something more challenging yet.
March 19, 201015 yr I just hope it's not mainly opera - although I do like his voice when he sings it, I just don't relate to it.

[/quot I completly agree with you 100% there Meg ....that would be Fantastic wouldn't it! :wub:
March 19, 201015 yr I think if Impossible Dream was to appear on his new album, he should have Rolando dueting as a guest, as it was very impressive on the show. I certainly hope it's not mainly opera! As good as D does it, I'd be very disappointed if it were :(
March 20, 201015 yr I'd hope he would mention it on Twitter of Facebook if there was, even if it was very short notice, but he doesn't seem to be posting there as much now. You did wonder if that would happen didn't you Meg? Sue
March 20, 201015 yr I think he forgets when he's rushing around and very busy This is The Marie Curie version of Non piu Andrai a3-N-efB5y0 Edited March 20, 201015 yr by megham
