Interview - Rev Opera

Thank you so much to Rev Opera for interviewing me for my upcoming performances ofLes Huguenots at the Opéra National de Paris

You are about to sing Marguerite de Valois in Les Huguenots at the Opéra de Paris. How do is it feel being part of this huge production ?

Of course it is all very exciting and I am quite nervous. But the main feeling I have is gratitude because this engagement means a great deal to me. I had to move mountains also to make it work, by learning the role in less than a week, changing my schedule for a month, rebooking flights and disappointing a few people along the way. It is not easy to just jump in to a new production in Paris, or anywhere for that matter. There is a lot of scrambling that is going on behind the scenes. But I’m glad I was able to learn the role and begin the rehearsals with this amazing cast !
