I don't like to sing loud.

I haven't really been able to transfer into that extraordinarily other worldly creature, other than I hope on stage.

A lot of performers don't want to leave the circuit, the European opera house circuit, partly because most singers don't sing many concerts, or at least not while they are in their prime.

An interpretation exists because of what we find between the notes.

The more you put into it, the more you and the audience will get out of it.

I don't like to sing loud.

Among the important realizations I had in my own days in the practice room was that if any one route to any one phrase didn't work after days of trying, then the exact opposite route should at least be explored, as well as every alternative in between, as counterintuitive as that often seemed.
