One of the most beautiful duets ever.
You really need to dive deep into opera to find this one.

😉

I'll leave the answer to someone else.

Name the work, the piece and the composer.
Image search may come in handy on some clues.

Trio might be de der der’s but Strauss is certainly deserving of the Roses

Je pense que tu as raison mon ami!

But we will have to wait for @Canuck to confirm.

Both of these puzzle answers are the names of famous arias from the world of opera. I am astonished that neither has yet been figured out by now. Google is your friend!

Cudos to @JimInOz for twigging to the Pearl Fishers. The image is of a Japanese ama. Usually a woman who, without breathing apparatus, could stay under water for up to four minutes as she foraged the sea floor for mollusks that might yield pearls.

Once more, cudos to @JimInOz for ferreting out the title to this rebus. It is indeed Dvorak’s Song to the Moon from the opera Rusalka.

@Matty01 wasn’t fooled by this one image rebus. Indeed, Bizet’s The Pearl Fishers. The image is of a Japanese ama who long ago, dove for pearl yielding mollusks.

The first clues tell me the answer is Strauss’ Der Rosencavalier. But the rest of the clues I am unsure about. Something about an Austrian trio of tenors singing it?

Close enough Doug, my later clues may have been a bit confusing.

The final trio between The Marschallin, Octavian, and Sophie from Act III of Richard Strauss's German opera Der Rosenkavalier

The emblem in the clue is for the ACT (Australian Capital Territory).

Big BZ to @Charlemagne1333 and @Canuck.
