Nessun Dorma

Shizuka Arakawa got the gold medal at the Olympic Ladies' Figure Skating in Turin. Congulaturations!

I remember the music she used while skating... Yes, a famous aria "Nessun dorma" from one of Puccini's opera, Turandot. I suppose she used it because it can make good atmosphere among Italian audience.

Just now I took this CD "VENEZIA LA FESTA - Caffè Concerto sulla Piazza San Marco" to listen the famous aria. I don't have the original opera's one. It is one of my precious CDs because it bring me back easily to the day when I first stood at the San Marco Plaza in Venice. It was like a dream.

Well, what kind of story Turandot is? I'm going to write it tomorrow.
