I don't want to be somebody who stands still and sings pretty. Each song is a world. Each song is a story. I don't achieve nearly what I want.
No voice teacher can be all things to all people. You have to gain information from whatever sources you can. You have to listen.
My parents discussed singing every night over the dinner table; I had a tremendous music education.
I want to keep my voice young, with nothing heavy.
