IPA Source: Content
IPA source offers a collection of transcriptions and literal translations of opera aria, art song, and Latin liturgical texts. The resource features mp3 recordings of selected texts and downloadable PDFs. Translations may be printed or saved to a local disk.
Sound recordings available in Latin, Italian, German, French. The database notes that these recordings are intended for pronunciation help for the singer, not as dramatic readings. Although the readings are done by a professional singer with extensive experience with the languages recorded here, whenever possible, you should try to listen to a native singer, or even better, a native actor reading the texts.
