Dear Friends,
I am nearing the end of my European journey with a lot of good news to report! Last night was our opening performance of "The Marriage of Figaro" in Santarcangelo di Romagna. It went extremely well and was received by a lovely Italian audience. Our cast had a lot of fun, and we will perform again this Friday here in Novafeltria.
Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to see my very talented colleagues perform "La Boheme" which was beautifully done. Today I have my final voice lessons and will attend the Donizetti opera "Rita," which several of my friends are starring in :)
The most exciting development of this week is that I took a voice lesson from Kathryn Hartgrove that truly expanded the way I think about my singing. She has agreed to be my voice teacher for the Master's program at Georgia State. I am very happy and relieved because I am looking forward to learning more and improving my technique!
Well, now I'm off to school! The pictures definitely bear some explanation...
1) My friend Steven (aka Bartolo) and I in full costume for opening night...and yes, that is my real hair!
2) The beach we visited in Rimini on Sunday
3) My friend Lisa and I preparing for a performance...I have been a perpetual roller-head for the last week :)
More to come soon!
