First time out last night singing the solos in Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem. Grateful to @nychoralconsortium for having me, James Wetzel and @tomjenningspianist on piano, the esteemed conductors, and the 500+ NYers who came out to sing.

Um Mitternacht • Mahler

Pretty much have wanted to sing this song since I was 16. Started working on it 5 years ago during my DMA. 3rd time performing it in public.

The snow may have stopped us once, but NEVER TWICE! @confluss show happening on Sunday 3/29, at 3pm— Saint John’s in the Village. Featuring music by:
@nathaniel.parks@maestro_distortion@lorilaitman
Martha Horst
@philemign0n
And yours, truly!
On the second half of the show, @drwillyb and I will perform Lori Laitman’s ‘Holocaust 1944’ for baritone and bass— a beautiful, tragic, haunting and meaningful duo, especially so right now. It would mean the world to me to see you there.
Please note the venue change!

Choked up as I write this •
I am maybe the proudest voice teacher on the planet of my students for their amazing showing at @natseasternregion Conference at @susquehannau this past weekend. @raritanvalleycc and specifically @rvcc_music made such an excellent second impression (with its first being last year). And my goodness, the awards:
Sarah Stefaniak and Cynthia DiMarco tied for first place in the Musical Theatre auditions
Sarah Stefaniak won the Commercial Music category
Alex Kesselhaut won third place in the Commercial Music category
I heard so much good singing this weekend in all genres and this makes my students’ triumphs even more incredible.
So, dear higher education institutions: FUND THE ARTS. Now more than ever. We can make dreams come true. I will fight for these students forever because THIS is what’s possible.

What a year! Amidst the world moving in an absolutely horrifying direction, I am grateful for the special moments with my family @ryslittlebakery and @powderthepomsky . If I’m sure of anything at all it is that we have to keep making art so that we can see the beauty.
Happy New Year, all. Let’s make it a happier one for more people.

400 classes at @otf_jerseycity in the books!
Since August 2023, @orangetheory has been one of the best parts of my life. And, there is nothing more important to me on this planet than my relationships. I am just so grateful that @heyheyitskatiek came into my life this summer. She and @rhendri023 have become staples in my and @ryslittlebakery ’s life and I truly cannot wait to hang over the holidays and in the new year.
(And, Kat made me row really fast. And - SAY GAY!)

5 years of marriage have gone by so fast. So much has changed in our lives. Our lives were made complete when we got @powderthepomsky , I got a doctorate, @ryslittlebakery started his, we moved, we deepened our relationships, we learn about each other every day. Nevertheless, we’re still coming to @bemelmansbar for Manhattans and going to bed before your grandma. I love you, Ry. You’re the best part of life.
