With classical singing you have to put out so much air - you project, you emit force.

I think singing it when its done well is extremely natural. It feels great.

When a human being without amplification makes a sound that is high and loud, it is almost unworldly.

I want to keep my voice young, with nothing heavy.

My parents discussed singing every night over the dinner table; I had a tremendous music education.

While it's a fact that a voice begins with natural talent, any talent must be nurtured, cajoled, wrestled with pampered, challenged, and, at every turn, examined.

We are unique, each human voice, not because we are completely self-generated, but because of who we choose to assemble the countless factors that made us.
