Opera Is More Like A Melodrama

Gershwin!

You just can't beat Gershwin music! It is just flat out having a good time. And when you get the right people singing it, it just explodes with energy!

I have the privilege of singing with 3 other fabulous artists in a Gershwin Gala this Thursday night. I had met Magaly through other singing venues, and was looking forward to working with her again. John, well, I went to school with him. His voice has just continued to sound better and better. But then, I love listening to tenors! His personality goes a long way too! So easy going and fun. Brian was new to me. And when he walked in the door with Magaly, I thought my old friend from college, Greg, had returned to tease me. Their personalities, not to mention their looks were so similar. The main difference: Greg has dark hair, Brian does not! No worries.

What a group and what a fun night of rehearsing. I haven't had that much fun in a long time. We are singing some real classics for those of you who love to watch Doris Day, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, and Frank Sinatra. And the concert ends with I Got Rhythmn. Hilarious!

Add to this mix that we are all opera based singers, relaxing a bit and having fun both vocally and personally! What a riot!
