The scene where Athena starts singing was seriously beautiful. It's sad that both her voice actor and singer passed away. I'd really like to see more of her, I wonder if they'll use spare recordings or something.
It was really great to see into the character's lives after Aria the Origination too. I can't wait for the rest of the episodes. Also damn, that animation was such eye-candy.

That looks really good. In order to watch that, should I watch Aria the Origination first? Or does it not matter?
Well In total there's three seasons, Aria the Animation, Aria the Natural and Aria the Origination, (And also a pretty important OVA, Arietta). So there's like 53 episodes worth to watch before Aria the Avvenire. Avvenire is basically a time skip after Origination so it probably wouldn't make a great deal of sense if you watched it standalone. The thing about Aria is that the plot slowly builds throughout the course of the three seasons so it's kind of difficult to skip any of it.
It's basically aimed towards a really particular type of audience, it's a healing anime so if you don't mind slow anime like Non Non Biyori and such it's worth a shot, and the climax to Aria the Origination is really worth it, it's probably the best ending to an anime I've seen to date. But some people might find it difficult to appreciate, and it's a pretty long series.
