Tonight's opera features nine sisters who usher Norsemen to Valhalla when they die during glorious battle. Here, they prepare and confer on a mountaintop before the battle, and the Flight of Valkyries, begins.
You can listen to Die Walkure here (on the miniplayer) or here (for the general website).

The Marriage of Figaro
This is Act 2 of the splendid comedy of delightful errors The Marriage of Figaro. In this scene, the countess tries (unsuccessfully) to convince the count that there is a woman, not a man, hiding in her closet. Her maid Susanna hides behind a couch.
Please forgive the photo quality. I am in need of a new camera.

You can listen to the beautiful recording here.
Edit: I added this photo to show the scene from the point of view of Cherubino who is, in fact, hiding in the closet.
