i'm putting this in Boot Camp, 'cause she talks a lot about career path, performance, as well as giving an incredible interview as performance - i've never seen Charlie Rose saying so few words

Singing Actress Natalie Dessay
(Opera Soprano Diva to those who aren't in the now ; - )

Thanks for your message Len, I actually hadn't seen this interview. I adore her, and Lucia is one of my favorites. It's a bit long, but some of the most sublime music there is. This woman can sing anything. I particularly like the way that she describes the experience of singing. It's definitely akin to an out of body experience when things are lined up.  I also love that she puts theater above the music. Too me opera is nothing more than a specific KIND of theater. It's nice to see a singer voicing that.  The opera world needs more singers... and more DIRECTORS to agree. Thanks again for posting it!

the standard rep, particularly, screams for a singer with acting skills. when supers are yawning on the risers, you know sleeping upright is only an aria away....
