Role(s) in this year's festival:
Participating in the 10-Day Intensive Program
I am preparing for NUOVA's program in the following ways: I am currently preparing a range of repertoire to bring to the program. I am also participating in an Opera and Choral ensemble, as well as taking Diction classes in addition my voice lessons so that when I come to the intensive, I will be prepared to participate and learn to the best of my ability. I have also been looking after my physical health through exercise and nutrition to remain healthy and ready to participate! I am also preparing for the program by keeping an open mind and an eagerness to learn as I continue my vocal studies.
What attracts you to NUOVA’s programs?
The main element that attracted me to NUOVA's programs was the focus on immersive vocal training within a supportive environment. As someone who has interests in how movement maintains positive effects on the voice, I am also eager to take part in movement classes and the Alexander technique. I am very excited to be challenged in new ways as an artist and to meet like-minded individuals who will share their perspectives on the musical world and how we can move the industry forward for a new generation. This year draws me particularly because I will be graduating this spring from my undergraduate program in music and this program is an important next step for me in my development as a singer. I am also very grateful for the opportunity work face to face in an intensive and I would like to take this opportunity as it becomes safe to do so.
