Opera - We love singing

Music, and more particularly singing is always with us. A certain day we may find ourselves moody and with a melody from La forza del destino playing over and over again in our head. Or maybe we feel like a superhero as we've doing great at work and then we feel like Calaf solving the 3 riddles that Turandot has proposed. First, we would like to share that this is not a place for the platitudes that are everywhere, telling my favorite singer is always the greatest in everything he's sung; and at the same time, we avoid being one of those toxic places where there's endless criticism around the minimum error of a given singer. We need more places where we can be respectful and still express our differences, as art is perception and no one perceives art equally to one another. Our second proposal is to come and share, both Katia and I are pretty sure there are a million questions you have always asked yourself about singing and as singers are sometimes not the most approachable people, well we hope can answers some of those questions!!

I think it is best to share something about me by making use of some of my favorite musical pieces: My early age was not different to anyone's, except for a couple of events at school that put me in a primo uomo rol with rendering honors to our well beloved Mexican flag. I was chosen for my voice and grades, I guess I was already a young-old Fausto already. Adolescence had its moments of big drama that would perfectly fit some parts of Il Trovatore and also the chance of meeting the soprano that would change my life, who by the way did not like my voice and chose someone else to sing with her (you see Operas work in real life also!!). There's been already a good number of ups and downs that now I would like to call experiences, life experiences that just like Hoffmann's muse, I hope someone will hear.

I'd like to introduce my self as an opera lover since 5 years old. La Traviata was the opera that changed my life and helped me to find my way (I decided to become an opera sincero then). It's not always been easy, but satisfactory at all
