How about which gruesome opera death? OK, maybe you haven't wondered about that, but we bet you there's one to match your personality.

 

Yours truly recently created two quizzes for Classical TV on Facebook to answer burning questions amongst you CTV readers and watchers (that's right, I'm here to help). After extensive research and grueling computer calibrations, we are prepared to divine your opera fortune: to reveal with which opera diva you most identify - to be more precise, with which diva moment in performance art history you most identify. Any Kathleen or Maria fans out there? You know I had some choice moments to choose from ...

 

And when it comes to death in opera, par for the course, yes: heads will roll, poison will be consumed, blah, blah ... but what about the really good opera deaths? The ones that really resonate with you (or make you laugh; some border on over-the-top, let's be honest). Don't be afraid to discover which opera death matches your personality - and it never hurts to have a reference; perhaps a similar fate can be avoided?

 

Read the quiz descriptions below, follow the link of your choice and have at it! (Click on Go To Application to take the quiz once you're there.)

And if anyone, from an opera house, to a musical rival, to an unsuspecting audience member - messes with a true diva - stand back. But where in the history of legendary diva spats do you fall? Take our quiz and find out...
