With Classical Singing You Have To Put

I Have A Noble History Of Being Rejected By A Lot Of Places, Only To Discover That The One That Finally Lets Me In Is In Fact The Perfect Fit.

At This Stage In My Career, I Don't Have To Take Any Big Risks. You Want To Take A Calculated Risk, Not One That Leads To People Saying 'yes, But There Was That One Time When She Made That Big Mistake.' It's Always A Shame When That Happens, Especially If You've Gotten By For Decades Without Anything Hugely Tragic.

My Philosophy Is That The People Around Us Are There Doing As Much Work If Not More Work Behind The Scenes And They're The Last People You Would Ever Be Unkind To, So I Hope I'm Not A Diva Off Stage.

When I Sing, The Sound Is A Totally Different Range, Color, All Of It. It's All About The Breath. You Take In A Breath And You Make A Sound.

I Have Not Changed With The Accomplishments. I've Remained The Same. If I Had Changed, Great. You Know, But I Haven't.
