It's hard to believe this 6-week adventure has come to and end! I recently had the pleasure of participating in the Opera NUOVA intensive summer training program in Edmonton. We produced three fully-staged, fully-orchestrated operas, as well as many art song and aria concerts. I played Jezibaba (the witch) in Rusalka, Dvorak's beloved opera which features the famous "Song to the Moon". I had the opportunity to coach with some of Canada's finest vocal teachers, and work alongside some of Canada's finest young operatic talent. Video footage to come....but in the meantime, here's a picture of me as Jezibaba, with Lida Szkwarek as Rusalka. And yes, that is my real hair.
