About Mr Figaro
Classical music can feel overwhelming, even for those who love it. Who’s Afraid of Classical Music? is here to make it easier—whether you’re just curious, a casual listener, or already a fan. No gatekeeping, I’ll explain the jargon, just good music and a bit of insight to help you enjoy it more.
I’m a former professional opera singer (now working in food, but that’s another story) and this newsletter is my way of sharing what I’ve learned—great pieces, standout recordings, and a few listening tips—without overcomplicating things.
Expect recommendations, stories, and a fresh way to approach classical music.
