‘The most important thing is to feel you are writing the best music you possibly can. But it’s nice to be busy (but not too busy), to be valued by your peers, and to be appreciated by your audience too.’
Lisette Oropesa, soprano
I’ve always been a singer, as my whole family is full of musicians of different types. I knew music was my journey but wasn’t sure how exactly to focus it; I wanted to be a singer/songwriter for a while, then a flutist, and now I’m really glad that I began to pursue a career in opera.
