Hi Madison, I am a childhood friend of your Mother and Aunt Katy. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed these video excerpts of your performances. You don’t need me to tell you that you are a consummate musician. But, I will anyway.😊 Your timbre, control, range, depth of expression, use of filagrees, and innigkeit (G) is delightful. If Amadeus comes around again, you would be perfect in the role of the opera singer who was highlighted in the original movie. Keep up the stellar work!
Hi Joe! Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comment!! This was a very fun role. I’ll keep my eyes out for the Amadeus revival 😆 All best, Madison
