Week 2

So glad you jumped in and posted a video. If you didn't get a chance to do that last week - it's not too late to get in on the fun - just post your 30 second self tape in this weeks' replies!

Here is where that amazing community aspect comes in. Now that you've listened to your colleagues' 30 second self tapes, offer a compliment on their posts AND request a song, style or composer from them. You can leave these replies in last weeks forum or tag them in this week's page. Either way, the goal is to share all the goodness you hear and offer some fun suggestions for pieces you would love to hear in their voice!  HINT: next week is all about honoring requests, so make them good!

      I would love to hear you sing something from Vaugn Williams songs of travel. Maybe "Let Beauty Awake" or "The Vagabond"??

       Here is a recording from last year. I am working with a writer for a scripted show based on the Songs of Travel.

    I would love to hear an Italian Art Song or Aria from you (maybe something from Stefano Donaudy??) .. something richly legato and beautifully expressive.

    I would love to hear more Baroque, but with some with coloratura.. like Handel's "Let the Bright Seraphim"  :)

    I would love to hear you sing something  like Samuel Barber's The Daisies or one of Britten's folk song settings (Like "Sweet Polly Oliver") - something that really highlights your storytelling :)

      I find that a song from Purcell or Dowland would suit you well !

    Have you ever sing something of Menotti ? For example Monica's waltz in The Medium ?

       No, mostly Mozart, Verdi, and American musical theater.
