Hello my friends, and welcome to our Fall 2023 Newsletter!  

I’m so excited to be dropping like the temps into my favorite time of year.  These are the months where the colors get brighter, along with my spirit and zest for life, along with my love for the outdoors.  

As I write this, I’m in the beautiful shiny city of Chicago, rehearsing for my debut with the Lyric Opera of Chicago in the role of Marie in Donizetti’s comedy La fille du régiment, in Laurent Pelly’s iconic production.  Starring alongside me is Larry Brownlee as Tonio, Alessandro Corbelli as Sulpice, and conducting us is the wonderful Maestro Speranza Scappucci, also making her debut!  We open on Nov 4 and have 7 performances, so come and see us!  

On Nov 7th for me is a half-recital concert in Clarksville, TN, at the Austin Peay State University, where I will also lead a masterclass on Nov 6th.  

On December 1st, I’ll be back in my hometown of New Orleans to sing a concert with three other young singers at the Mahalia Jackson Theatre.  This evening of opera arias and ensembles highlights the incredible talent that the Met’s Laffont Competition has featured over the years.  Meastro Joseph Colaneri leads us.  

Finally on Dec. 10th, Larry Brownlee and I reunite in Dresden for a concert performance of Bellini’s I Puritani. We are so excited also to be recording the complete opera for future release on audio CD.
