Along with Ann Rodiger and Audrey Luna, I’ve co-founded ATsinging: a company dedicated to sharing the insights of the Alexander Technique with singers and singing teachers. This is our first two week summer intensive, where students will receive daily Alexander Technique & Singing lessons as well as daily coachings with premier vocal coaches while receiving simultaneous hands-on-feedback from Alexander Teachers. Add to that daily group class on dynamic body balance, breathing, and articulation, and we’ve got a serious paradigm shifting program on our hands! Check out our other offerings throughout the year.

Along with some stellar administration and faculty, I’ve been lucky enough to help create and teach in a new summer training program for high school singers. The program runs for two weeks, and has two separate divisions: one for students interested in classical singing, and one for students in musical theater. Please check us out and consider joining us at the beautiful, state-of-the-art facilities of Windermere Preparatory School in Orlando, Florida!

Part of the 2017 Next Wave Festival

At the crux of Walt Whitman’s “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry” lies the question: “What is it, then, between us?” In Crossing, 27-year-old composer and conductor Matthew Aucoin explodes Whitman’s “us” to operatic proportions, taking inspiration from the diary the poet kept while volunteering as a Civil War nurse. Stunningly rendered by pioneering, Boston-based orchestra collective A Far Cry and American Repertory Theater artistic director Diane Paulus (Waitress, Pippin), Aucoin’s taut chamber opera imagines Whitman, played by baritone Rod Gilfry (the loser, 2016 Next Wave; Anna Nicole, 2013 Next Wave), drawn deep into a fraught, sensual relationship with wounded young soldier John Wormley (tenor Alexander Lewis). In the shadows of a DC sick ward, haunted by the dreams and nightmares of its inmates, the two men grapple with questions that threaten to tear each other—and their country—apart.

I'll be singing Masetto in Don Giovanni in NYC with the newly formed Venture Opera. They've assembled a killer ensemble, a go for the gut concept that makes Giovanni come to rip-roaring modern relevance and life, and an "oh my God, only in New York" kind of performance space. Plus it starts with cocktails and ends with a dance party...Hope to see you there! For more information and to buy tickets click here.
