@MetsBooth all three of us were rooting for the no-no. That’s why we left after Nimmo’s hit!

It was such an honor to sing for Sharon Sweet in a master class on Monday night presented by Martina Arroyo’s Prelude to Performance program. Here I am afterwards pictured with the two of them. I’m so thankful for all this program has given me. #legends

One hundred years ago today, the great Swedish soprano Birgit Nilsson was born. She is my all-time favorite opera singer, so I decided to end my two-year hiatus of blogging by writing a tribute to her. Happy Birthday, Birgit! msoperageek.wordpress.com/20…

When I’ve made trips to Disney World/Land I’ve loved making a game of counting how many meltdowns I see in a day. The numbers are pretty astounding.

The line in Parsifal that really stuck with me this time was in act 3, when Gurnemanz says, "Away with your weapons, for our Lord had none."
