Juliane Banse has great lungs. She’s a German opera soprano who has brought classic opera to the masses, with such made-for-TV productions of Don Giovanni (1995) and Fidelio (2003). Now, before you stop reading, note that opera has been around for centuries and that popularity has to spring from someplace physical and even carnal. If men have been waiting for the fat lady to sing, they’ve also eyeballed the svelte brunette for a look at her hidden talents. This she gives us in Der Freischutez (2010), a romantic opera about two hunters who are in love with the same woman, which takes place during the Napoleonic wars. Guess who that lady is. Yeah, Juliane, and you’ll love her too when she pulls down her dress in front of the mirror and shows off her tits.
