This coming Sunday 20 November I’m looking forward to performing with the Melbourne Bach Chamber Choir. I’ll be singing Benjamin Britten’s Corpus Christi Carol, along with other choral works by Barber, Randall Thompson, and Rachmaninov, and Britten’s Hymn to Saint Cecilia.

I’ve just returned from a tour of China where I was performing the role of Dritter Knabe in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte with the Australian International Opera Company. Our schedule was a busy one——we performed fourteen shows (two of which were gala concerts) across six cities. It was an amazing and rewarding experience. I am, however, pleased to be back on home soil, and am looking forward to my next concert this coming Sunday. Details to follow.

I enjoyed a really lovely week in Sydney from end September to beginning October, where I rehearsed and performed the role of Sister Teresa, a Timorese nun, in Luke Cummin’s opera Timor. I also managed to squeeze in the four-day Musicological Society of Australia 2015 National Conference at the Sydney Conservatorium, for which I presented a paper on Benjamin Britten’s opera Gloriana and the soprano Joan Cross who created the title role. Phew! What a week.
