comparative more operalike · superlative most operalike
- Resembling or characteristic of opera.
Working amplified in a small room for about 15 tables of listeners digesting their dinners, Ms. Racette made sounds that were strikingly darker: sometimes in a contraltolike belt, alternating between various purrs and growls, and at selected moments opening up fully in operalike climaxes.
