The atmosphere of the theater is my oxygen.

The high note is not the only thing.

I then realized that I could never be satisfied again with the mere natural charm of my voice, that I had to constantly paint when singing, melting all the colors, expressing reds and blacks that had to be less primary but bursting with subtly colored combinations.

I'm not superstitious because it brings bad luck.

On the other hand, I have devoted so much energy to reach the top that I accept the stress of being there.

If money was my only motivation, I would organize myself differently.

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.
