✨I just can’t get tired of Verdi! So “prepare tuh be sickuh me!”😂😂

✨ I haven’t had any arias in my package that I felt could stand against the bel canto or big verismo pieces so… this clip of and I performing the “recit” of Gabriele’s “rage/broken heart” aria from Simon Boccanegra is my attempt to answer that challenge hahaha. I said “my last season here I’m gone be leaving with some bangers!!”

✨ Is this a banger y’all? What’s it giving?? Should I post the Cavatina???

😅NOOO THE WHOLE THING DIDN’T POST!!

✨Well… here is the rest of the aria! I edited some parts out because it’s just long! And this is just an inside scoop, this IS NOT performance ready yet, I have a lot to work on in the language, phrasing and technique but I’m not sacred show what we are doing!!! Y’all will hear the rest of it at like Operalia or something hehehe.

✨ Any, we start Porgy Tech Rehearsals today! I hope y’all come see the show! We have shows running from Oct. 24- Nov. 15!
