Grateful for the absolute spot-on feedback! We talked a lot about technique, but we were also able to discuss other (more vulnerable) topics such as stage fright. Thank you sincerely, Michelle, for sharing your knowledge with such generosity and enthusiasm.

I actually saw Michelle perform Bartók's Bluebeard's Castle with the Houston Symphony back in 2019. I remember that performance so vividly: Being hit by the huge wall of sound of her voice and being seriously moved (and a little spooked) by the drama of it all. Gorgeous moment, especially for someone fresh out of grad school. Feels like a nice, full circle moment.

Friends, I'm overjoyed to be back at this Fall as Mezzo Resident Artist! You can catch me as Giovanna and Maddalena cover in Rigoletto, as well as touring the community with our many outreach performances. So many exciting things to come. Stay tuned!
