Thank you to the wonderful Lucy Woodruff at Divas & Scholars (www.divasandscholars.com) for putting on the Puccini Masterclass I sang in this week.  It was a great experience to perform in Cadogan Hall and to have the expertise of Rosalind Plowright on hand.  All the young singers invited to sing benefited from her warm and supportive feedback coaching us into better understanding the verismo style of Puccini and his contemporaries.
