Description | Calling this book 'the autobiography of my voice,' soprano Fleming details the years of study it took to master the art of vocal production and the discipline that brought her international renown. A former manager deemed her 'the single most ambitious singer he has ever known,' and given the tenacity with which she faced early setbacks—'I have a noble history of being rejected from a lot of places,' she writes—his comment is understandable. After her first big break in 1990 (as the Countess in Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro with the Houston Grand Opera), Fleming's rise to the top was steady. But she's quick to point out that the life of an opera star is not always glitter and glamour: the business side of singing—scheduling performances, arranging interviews and recordings, choosing a repertoire and marketing herself—is arduous. |
