Tis' the season

Well the audition season is still in full swing, as there are competitions, yap's, agents etc. to be sung for.  Most think it is just November, but it often bleeds well into December and this year it will bring me all the way to December 21st!

I am leaving this morning for a week in the Toronto area for the District auditions for the MET competition in Buffalo, Messiah in London, then back to Montreal for a day and then to New York for a couple more auditions before heading home for the holidays. 

It is a busy time of year, but always worth it! 

I have good news to share but I have to keep it quiet for a little while longer... so keep posted until I am able to announce officially!! :)

Oh, but to keep you up-to-date on some more exciting things that have happened in the past few weeks: I sang a concert with Ensemble Caprice in Montreal at the Salle Bourgie (beautiful new concert hall associated with the Musée des beaux arts). It was a concert of Witches and Queens, so naturally I was singing the two arias of the Queen of the Night and also an aria from Haydn's Armida. What a wonderful group to work with. Matthias Maute was the director, and it was such a blast to work with the entire orchestra! Kudos!

Well, happy holiday season to all of you, wherever you are!
