If you know why you fall in love, you aren't in love
There is no prodigy in our profession. If you see all the great singer of the past, none of them are.
It is not always a matter of wild ovations and legendary performances. Sometimes you are just happy to get through an opera without trouble.
The better voice doesn't mean being a better singer.
Am I afraid of high notes? Of course I am afraid. What sane man is not?
I want to reach as many people as possible with the message of music, of wonderful opera.
