I Learned So Many Roles So Quickly

I Was Constantly Being Pushed Toward A European Ideal Of What It Means To Be A Classical Or Opera Singer, Let's Say In The Renata Tebaldi Mode. I Reject That.

I Don't Like To Sing Loud.

My Worry Is That Opera Will Become An Historic Art Form As Opposed To A Living, Breathing Thing.
