I Have A European Frame Of Mind

Let Me Say That I've Never Thought To Conduct Because The Conductor Has To Think To The Music Before The Orchestra. And The Orchestra Comes Later. For Me, It's Terrible.

The Fact That I Am Blind Is Not What Defines My Life. It Should Be Of No More Interest Than My Blood Type. People Wonder If There Is A Relationship Between My Lack Of Sight And The Way I Sing. But There's No Connection.

I Want To Have Time For Myself, My Family And My Friends. It's Important Because In Order To Sing Well, You Must Have Inspiration, And Inspiration Comes From Life, From Living.

More People Are Listening To Opera, And I'm Happy - Everybody Must Be Given That Opportunity.
