Such a fun night! Always a joy to sing the ultra sassy and super sweet Zerlina 💕 Special congratulations to the gorgeous @federica_lombardi_s & @hannaelisabethmueller who made beautiful house debuts last night as Donna Elvira/Donna Anna 💫 one down, three more to go! #toccamiqua
The @wienerstaatsoper announced their 2019-2020 season and I’m jumping for joy! Revisiting two of my favorite sassy ladies—Susanna/Norina, making my house debut as Pamina, and singing my very first Gretel 🍭 I’m so happy to continue performing at this beautiful, historic house 💖
I’m so excited to be joining the @richardtuckermusicfoundation this week to answer some questions! Don’t be shy and ask away. The sky’s the limit!
What’s it like to sing in Europe on a fest contract?
What do I do for fun?
Do I have 90’s hip hop and salsa dance parties in my dressing room when I’m not onstage?
Why on earth do I like getting to the theater four hours before my call time on show days?
Did a Disney princess really inspire me to become an opera singer?
Here’s your chance to find out 😎

This opera is pure joy in a bottle 😉❤️🍾 My own heart needed this joy and these smiles this week. As I reflect today, I’m thankful for the perspective and healing this art form provides, the privilege of being a vessel for this sacred kind of connection and communication, and the humbling reminder to step outside of my own immediate “noise” and surrender to a higher, more important, and more generous power 💫🙏🏻 Bravi to my wonderful colleagues and friends both onstage and off, to the inimitable Maestro Armiliato, and to the ever-enthusiastic and warm audience here in Vienna. Two more shows to go! But first, Opera Ball 💃🏻 #adina #prendi #dichosa @wienerstaatsoper
Join me tomorrow (Friday 2/1) at 6:55 pm CST as I host the Livestream of the 2019 Eleanor McCollum Competition, Concert of Arias. I won this competition in 2012 and it absolutely changed my life.
