Hello my friends, and welcome to our Summer 2026 Newsletter!! We are up for a really interesting summer with lots of projects big and small, but all impactful. In London, I'm singing in a new production of I puritani at the Royal Opera House, led by Riccardo Frizza. Then I'm heading to Savonlinna, Finland to sing my first ever concerts of Bellini's Norma.
I'm excited to add this important bel canto role to my expanding repertoire, and look forward to starting my personal journey with the character, as I move away from I puritani's heroine Elvira.
Then I am diving into different waters and singing my first performances of Liù in Puccini's Turandot at the gorgeous Arena di Verona in August.
There are 3 performances with rotating casts, all wonderful friends and colleagues I greatly look forward to working with!
In Salzburg, I'll be performing a recital of Spanish and Cuban songs and arias, accompanied by my friend, pianist Rubén Fernandez Aguirre. Then at the end of the summer I head back to London for a revival of our award-winning production of Händel's Alcina.
In between performances I'll be giving masterclasses in Southampton, Campobasso, and Wexford, all on Verdi, bel canto, and opera in general.
I always look forward to working with young singers and learning from them!
