I watched a movie the other day called The Mirror Has Two Faces. The main characters are two Columbia University professors, one teaches mathematics, the other literature; both are looking for romantic love. The English professor, played by Barbara Streisand is unsuccessful in her relationships, because as she says, "when it's right you should hear Pucccini music playing in the background." The movie is a funny and endearing love story and I recommend it for those who like a storybook romance.

Here is the aria "Nessun Dorma" from Puccini's opera "Turandot" sung by opera's biggest superstar Luciano Pavarotti. For those who have been in love or are in love, you probably have heard
this song before, especially when you are hugging your soulmate. The song is about love's ability to conquer all.
When Pavarotti died, the line of mourners formed around his birthplace home in Modena, Italy to remember a great tenor's voice, his pristine sound, and the singing from his soul. His talent and appeal reached far beyond opera lovers, and probably included all lovers in general.
