If pressed for time,an accordian rendition of the flight of the bumble bee.

Love the Barber of Seville choice. i don't ever listen to music while shaving, but if I did I think Goldberg vatiations with Kenneth Gilbert would be good. I'd also like to try some arias from La Boheme, any Puccini really.
But I am a classical musician so i generally don't listen to it. I'd prefer old American stuff for some reason, but if modern maybe Charlie Parr.

This thread is missing an aria or two I think.
Any chance you could select something you like from Youtube to add the the collection?
Especially from a professional muso

Here are a few from opera - you can find other singers doing the same arias on the side.
Kiri te Kanawa - O mio babbino caro - Puccini - YouTube

We have guys on this site using razors from the 18th century. If you've got a really old one and want appropriate musical accompaniment, look to later works by Bach or Handel, anything from Mozart or Haydn, or early Beethoven. Good stuff!
