My life at The Met has been and continues to be fantastic! Heading into my 17th Year as a Full-time member of The Met Chorus!
It's a very intense schedule: we begin rehearsals around the first of August, open the season toward the end of September, perform usually over 25 different operas each year (all in various languages including Italian, German, French, Russian, Sanscript, etc.), sometimes 7 shows a week with rehearsals during the day, ending our season around the middle of May! It's sometimes exhausting - but always exhilarating!
I feel very blessed to be on that stage every night and hear that glorious music - plus to be doing what I feel like I was meant to do in life is a true blessing!
