I'm very pro presenting the best music I can to the widest audience possible.
I would just like to say that opera is no longer about fat people in breastplates shattering wine glasses.
I performed in Sydney some years ago for the Sydney Festival and I am just so pleased to be returning to the wonderful Sydney Opera House and also performing in Melbourne for the first time.
Nobody inspired me more than Julie Andrews, who is a classically trained soprano herself.
Opera is credible drama now, and it costs less than going to a football match. What have you got to lose?
