FAVORITE SUNG WORDS IN PIAZZA?

Posted: 9/16/05 at 2:13pm

My two favorite sung words in The Light in the Piazza were:

"Fabrizio Nacarelli"

Unfortunately, they did not make it onto the CD.

What are your favorite words sung in Piazza?

"Was there a King was there a Queen" and "From the Heart"

both from Stautes and Stories

and the "Look"(all of them!) from Fable

"....When your hat is carried in the air. Just so you could chase it. Just so I could be there..."

from Love To Me (surprise, suprise; for those who know me)

Hey Dottie! Did your colleagues enjoy the cake even though your cat decided to sit on it? ~GuyfromGermany

"Clara," which follows "Fabrizio Naccarelli."

And "looooooove" in Fable, of course, especially when Vicki flings her arms wide.

"Peace! The charm's wound up." --Macbeth

"....When your hat is carried in the air. Just so you could chase it. Just so I could be there..."

Dottie beat me to it. So I will second her.

i'm a tough act to follow because when i'm done i take the microphone with me.

From "Statues and Stories":

"...for a fire or river overflowing."

"Oh."

Are those Fabrizio Nacarrelli and Clara sung when they meet each other? I hate that I'm beginning to forget the show...

re: FAVORITE SUNG WORDS IN PIAZZA?

From "The Beauty Is (Reprise)":

"I reach, like those paintings in the old tradition...
...watching over my, my little lost Clara.
If I could then I would paint it over..."

I just keep singing "Let's walk". Can be sung on many occasions!

My heart starts to pour when Margaret sings of her "little lost Clara" in the reprise of "The Beauty Is."

"Clara, the light in the piazza, my love." The last words sung in the show...it just rips me to shreds (in a good way!)

The key to the mystery of a great artist is that for reasons unknown, he will give away his energies and his life just to make sure that one note follows another... and leaves us with the feeling that something is right in the world. ~Leonard Bernstein~

Um...but...

Clara sings the "my love" words about Fabrizio.

Her Mummie doesn't sing those two words about Clara.

Mummy's got her own flirtation going on, you know...

In "Fable" my favorite sung words are:

"Where waters shine and horses run
Where there's a man who looks for you"

Sexy, huh?

I'm not biting.

I had to clear it up for your posterior--I mean for posterity.

And in Passegiata, my favorite sung words:

"I am work here in a tie shop
Next to Arno River..."

What are yours?

If anybody still cares about Piazza besides me.

It has been around for a while for those jaded types who don't care about romance.

But I know on this BWW Message Board there are a hardy stock of INCURABLE ROMANTICS!

How about those really JUNK directions Fabrizio gives Clara for when she tries to meet him late at night?

You're so right...my bad...I always expect her to say it...and then she doesn't cause it's Clara's line...damn it. ANYWAYZ, it still is one of my fave lines...

I also love
C-My milk is what? What milk?
F-Not milk, is like milk.
C-Like snow?
F-Eh, si, but no
I know snow
Non e' snow
Is...
Here. Come si dice?
Here?
And here?
And also here
C-My skin!
F-Your skin is like milk!

I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT!

A cartographer could get lost on those crazed Fabrizio directions--

I mean, making left at the Arno?

Jeesh!

Definitely "Love" that Victoria Clark [Margaret] sings when she opens her arms wide is the most powerful word in the entire show.

Also: I love "Clara" when Matty [Fabrizio] comes running onto the stage... to his family. And "the place that I know... la passeggiata" I love also. "It's there... it is there" from the title song sung by Kelli O'Hara [Clara]

FAVORITE UNSUNG WORDS:
"Have you had an ENJOYABLE afternoon?"

hehe

Yeah, korenglish, I dug the called out "Clara," too. Sounded like he was about to throw himself in the Arno.

But korenglish, was it Fabrizio's or Franca's "ENJOYABLE afternoon" that you liked the best?

re: FAVORITE SUNG WORDS IN PIAZZA?

Posted: 9/16/05 at 11:13pm

putting me on the spot... I think I love the way Franca first says it, in such a singsong voice... and Fabrizio tries to follow suit, making it hilarious when he tries to say it as high as her.

A combination of the both was what I was talking about...

korenglish,

had you run for election in my district, I'da voted for you!

Brilliantly stated!

(We all know it was Franca...it's her killer line...I take it back, it leads up to her killer line to Giuseppe letting him know she knows he spent the afternoon with another woman...)

haha... thanks nomdeplume! I think you're right in a sense, without Franca's singsong voice that Fabrizio tries to follow to learn English, the lines wouldn't be as funny... but if Fabrizio wasn't so innocently trying to follow her, and his voice crack in the middle of the statement, then it also wouldn't be as funny.

Both of the killer lines together make a great combination, but it is Franca starts the entire phrase...
