Sleep-deprived, delirious, feeling crushed and a bit overwhelmed by lack of time to prepare for anything adequately: but the cuteness is worth it. Right?
Great quartet, so lovely to sing with you all and always such a luxury to sing in Alice Tully. (And to connect with beautiful soprano and fellow @Eastman.school alum, @iamkarenhohoho !) Thanks Nick Netos, @philharmoniany @projecthandinhand and conductor #atsushiyamada 👏👏👏 @alex_richardson_tenor @bmextorf
Feels good to be back in my favorite gowns over a year later! Fits a little differently..... but fits nonetheless. #mozart #philharmoniaorchestraofnewyork #requiem #alicetullyhall #barenreiterblue
What’s it like having a baby as a working singer? Packing a suitcase for a concert day (dress rehearsal at 2pm and concert at 7:30pm) that includes 1) music, 2) makeup/shoes/hair/jewelry, 3) all pumping supplies because you have to do that about three times, 4) your stack of files and computer so that you can use your dinner break to finish organizing taxes. Are we having fun yet? 😂😬😜😆🍀
Such a bright and beautiful addition to 37th between 9th and 10th! Color on a cloudy day. And Mozart Requiem rehearsal with some great friends @thedimennacenter @alex_richardson_tenor @bmextorf @jtroyviola @poiboy58 happy Friday y’all!
Just can’t resist one more...today is officially #13weeks
Who you calling three months? #timeflieswhenyourehavingfun (and even when you’re not) ❤️ #loveandredspect
Excited to bring these five gorgeous songs to life this weekend with @chelseasymphony (& friends who sounds great! @angshankarmusic et al) under Decruck scholar, conductor Matthew Aubin, who introduced me to this composer and invited me to sing her music. Such fun to rehearse these pieces, now just really hoping this head cold clears in the next 48 hours! 🤧 just learned that these songs were first premiered in Paris by Hélène Bouvier in 1944 at the Théâtre du Châtelet—and Bouvier was the first mezzo to sing Duruflé’s Pie Jesu. 😺Concert includes Le tombeau de Couperin and some exciting premieres...can’t wait! Friday and Saturday at 8pm, St. Paul’s Lutheran Church on W22nd Street. #fernandedecruck #french #chelseasymphony #nyc #jeanracine
2.5 months going on 25. Especially when wearing shoes, local Brooklyn flair, and hipster hats from generous family friends. Our hearts have been fuller than I ever thought possible and what a gift it has been to have my Mom with us for these weeks. Ossian is an incredibly lucky dude and he is such a joyful blessing. ❤️
Nursing a baby and a (watered down) mimosa over brunch while waiting for @jojolurie ❤️ #multitasking
First gown purchase in over a year. L&T may no longer have a home on Fifth Avenue, but when one’s best friend lives in Cranford, NJ, one is able to stop at the amazing Westfield location and take advantage of killer (!) sales. This is for a Mozart Requiem in a few weeks at Alice Tully and the drama of dress really said Mozart to me. There is artistry in what we wear when we sing oratorio and it’s certainly a fun part of the job. Can’t wait for the Rent the Runway sample sales...who wants to brave it with me and a baby carrier 😂...#mezzo #concertwear #costume #gowningaround #mozart #lincolncenter
Mozart, Handel, Bach, Brahms gigs with new baby: 😺. New, difficult recital music with new baby: 😬🙏🏻🤞. But grateful for practice time when Red has our lovie, and grateful to be working on beautiful music by @dfelsenfeld and @evbvd for an April @brooklynartsongsociety concert: ❤️ #newmusic #mezzo #gorgeous #artsong #whatdididowithallmytimebefore
Tummy time = core workout. #goals #babysteps

My hearts. #whyhellothere
I’m sure every time I sing this piece I post something about part of it. I could sing it a billion times over the rest of my life and it would never cease to inspire, comfort, keep me on my technical and artistic toes. Is this not one of the best E-major pivots in all of Western Classical music? #dropthebass #brahms #requiem #canlisten because altos #ruhenvonarbeiten in this movement and listen in awe to sops, bassi and tenori soar. (We work pretty hard throughout the rest of the piece...😜) Come hear this weekend at @smss_concerts Sunday 3pm
Remembering that beautiful day in June when our friends/amazing colleagues sang this (difficult and stunning piece) for our Vermont wedding ceremony with an amazing improv by @fostermycello ; a plane went by overhead droning in the tonal area of the piece—we know it was Joey saying hello from above. ❤️ #pärt #beautitudes #blessedarethepeacemakers #vermont #commongroundcenter #loveandredspect
Super fun to be at my alma mater recording with James Blachly and the @experientialorchestra and @clarion_music_society ; my Mom is with us to hang out with the little man in a dressing room. Wonderful singing between mezzo colleagues @hkarloski and @mikkisodergren ❤️ and running into some familiar faces I haven’t seen in over a decade. @dashonburton and @sarahenb5 killing it. Being at the @purchasecollege @purchasepac is bringing back a million memories from my undergrad time working as a work study student for Melinda Craig and company management here...spent so many hours in these halls. And performing operas in the Recital Hall. Very glad to see these amazing theaters thriving—an oasis of music and art! #recording #ethylsmyth #theprison #clarionchoir #westchester #keeppurchaseweird #heliotrope #puce @purchaseopera
