Sweet Willie Singleton is an exceptionally capable classical cornet and trumpet exemplified by these exceptional interpretations of Puccini's' most famous arias:
If Sweet Willie Singleton's magnificent, heart felt performance of "Nessun Dorma" on cornet does not send chills up your spine and tears to your eyes, it is time to call the undertaker.
"Nessun dorma" (Italian: [nesˌsun ˈdɔrma]; English: "Let no one sleep")[1] is an aria from the final act of Giacomo Puccini's opera Turandot (text by Giuseppe Adami and Renato Simoni) and one of the best-known tenor arias in all opera. It is sung by Calaf, il principe ignoto (the unknown prince), who falls in love at first sight with the beautiful but cold Princess Turandot.
Any man who wishes to wed Turandot must first answer her three riddles; if he fails, he will be beheaded. In the aria, Calaf expresses his triumphant assurance that he will win the princess.

I remember Willie from the Navy on the Kennedy. He was good even then.
