When working with an orchestra, you never spend more than 20 minutes per recording session.

Between parts I was too old for and roles that were too overwhelming, out of reach then for my voice. I carved out a niche with the Wagnerian repertoire since I am attracted by its theatrical intensity.

Should it happen tomorrow, I would fall to my knees to give thanks to God for such a career.

I feel like a little boy who is constantly offered new toys.

Singing becomes a form of therapy.

Honestly, if the public still wants to hear me in some works, I have to go down a half step.

With my personal preparation at the piano, I can afford to hum at half voice.
