You Don’t Know Opera

Frank Engel is hot.  Not just because of his looks, but the fact that he sings like an angel and boxes like a pro.  For his day job he is a tenor in the choir of the National Opera in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, but when he is not working he can be found in the boxing ring as this is his chosen way to relax.  His fear of going on stage is greater than his dread of death.

In this wonderfully moving video fellow Dutchman Ruben Van Leer captures Engel as he floats between his two worlds in a short movie that originally started out as an advert to encourage more young people to go see opera, but grew into being a work of art in itself.  It’s quite beautiful.
