One of the highlights of my life was the 11 years I spent with The Western Wind Vocal Ensemble. We sang, we recorded, and we gave singing workshops. Every summer at Smith College for two weeks—and that’s how I got to know and love Northampton! Also long weekends in Brattleboro and Woodstock, VT. One day workshops in NYC. And one-offs at various places where we were also giving concerts.
I learned A LOT at those Smith workshops! And it was you, Richard, who showed me a style and place for my particular imperfect voice. Though I always wanted to sing Monteverdi!
