Hello my friends, and welcome to our Winter 2023 Newsletter!
👀 - View the newsletter here! https://mailchi.mp/c2c532d7f804/liset...
We hope you had a beautiful holiday season, and are looking forward to an incredible year ahead. My winter season has got a lot of variety and I’m looking forward to each and every project.
Last month, I enjoyed a happy return to the Metropolitan Opera as Gilda, and this January I’m in Munich singing 3 performances of another Verdi role: Amalia in I masnadieri. I’ve had the privilege to sing this role a few times now, and it’s one that I find particularly captivating.
On February 4th, I’ll be returning to Salzburg to debut in Mozartwoche 2023, as the soprano soloist in Mozart’s Requiem. I’m very excited to sing this piece again, as it’s one of my all-time favorites.
Then it’s off to Paris to return to another exciting role, Ophélie in Thomas’ immense opera, Hamlet. This new production stars Ludovic Tézier as the titular baritone, and performances at the Bastille run from March 11th - 30th.
I cannot wait to get started on all of these amazing pieces, each of which has a special place in my heart! Hope to see you at one of the shows ahead.
→ REFLECTIONS
As I look to the year ahead, it’s easy to get a bit overwhelmed, as I’m singing new roles, making multiple house debuts, recording an album, and returning to a few roles that I haven’t sung in several years.
There’s concert work, and my repertoire is beginning to spread out even more, with everything from Handel and Mozart, lots of Bel canto, Verdi, French opera, to Zarzuela. The only role I’m singing twice this year is Lucia, and both times it’s in a version I’ve never done: Once in the original keys at La Scala-Milano (more on that in the next newsletter!) and once in French at Aix en Provence.
It’s definitely not going to be boring!
I’m naturally a very studious person, but I don’t enjoy cramming new repertoire into a short learning span, so my pacing is going to be put to the test this year as I navigate all of these hurdles ahead. There’s no time to waste!
That being said, time management is something that I will have to be thoughtful about, as the stress of looking too far ahead can keep me from enjoying the moment and doing the best I can in the present. I’ll need to be reminding myself to “run the mile you are on” as I have in the past when running marathons.
It’s all about the journey.
