As a professional singer, I am lucky to say that making art is my job!
My specialty as an Operatic Tenor are the Bel Canto operas of Rossini and Donizetti as well as the comedies of Mozart. The musicianship skills I learned in Mrs. Kaufman's choir program and Ms. Nicoloff's orchestra class are tools I use everyday when I sing and learn music. In addition the characters I play in these operas come from the Italian Commedia dell'arte stock characters, the physical comedy I learned from Wendy Duke has been something that has often put me a step ahead of my colleagues and helped me gain a reputation as an excellent singer-actor in the opera world.
