I'm lucky - I can do two things at once.

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

I do everything in the third person. Performance is about being someone else.

No voice teacher can be all things to all people. You have to gain information from whatever sources you can. You have to listen.

Certainly, jazz has become more of a niche, which is surprising, because it's our music. It's the national music of America.

My whole career I played these girls sort of 18 to 23.

I enjoy the more floaty, exposed, elegant singing.
