  • Hello my friends, and welcome to our Summer 2023 Newsletter!!
    This summer I am getting the full sun treatment with beautiful engagements in Savonlinna, Finland, the Arena di Verona in Italy, Aix-en-Provence in the south of France, Águilas, Spain, a masterclass/recital in East Hampton, NY, and Tokyo, Japan.
    The most exciting thing for me this summer is the 2 role debuts that I’m making, in the French language repertoire that I love so much! Gounod’s Juliette and Donizetti’s Lucie. I’ve dreamed of singing Juliette for a long time and it’s finally happening, and I couldn’t be happier!
    My pianist, Ruben Fernandez-Aguirre and I have planned a fabulous recital program of French/Spanish music that we are presenting in Savonlinna as well as in Águilas, so check the dates below!
    Lucie de Lammermoor, the French iteration of Donizetti’s beloved masterpiece, I will be performing in a single concert performance at Aix, alongside amazing colleagues. In between these engagements I’m singing a couple performances of La traviata at the Arena di Verona.
    Then I head to East Hampton, New York, for “Belcanto Bootcamp,” to teach a masterclass and sing a recital with their program’s wonderful resident artists. I’m so looking forward to learning from them!
    Finally, September brings us back to Tokyo, Japan, with the Teatro dell’opera di Roma, to sing my dear Violetta in 3 performances of La traviata. I am so excited for that amazing trip!
    Hope you have a great summer and see you somewhere in the world!
    → REFLECTIONS
    This has been the most rewarding year of my career, I think. I feel like I’m working harder than ever, but also getting better at finding balance in my time off and making time for my needs that are separate from work. So I’m feeling connected with my personal and professional life in a very fulfilling way, practicing gratitude every day, and just working on being in the moment and nowhere else.
    I think I still can improve some in my stress management, and hey, I don’t think an opera singer’s life is ever stress-less, but I’m managing it better and we are going in the right direction!
    Last year I had been through a pretty tough period where I was feeling frequently overwhelmed, and I knew I’d have to put my priorities in order when it comes to my time, my needs, and the realities of being a musical athlete.
    So, this summer I’m giving myself a pat on the back, and hopefully booking a vacation, too!

    Bonsoir Lisette. Quel plaisir de vous retrouver dans ces chroniques.
    Vous exercez votre métier d’une façon remarquable et nous en tirons beaucoup d’avantages et un certain réconfort par ces temps assez difficiles.
    Être une artiste sur scène doit demander beaucoup d’énergie, alors encore une fois : Merci.

    I would love to see your Lucia and Fiorilla live and to be recorded and released commercially. Toi toi toi for the rest of the run in Finland. I saw Amitai Pati as Nemorino and his una furtiva lagrima was the best I have heard.

    Me alegró tanto poder escucharte en vivo en Il turco en Madrid 😻😻 y constatar que esa voz que se siente en los vídeos es todavía mejor en el teatro. Afortunados los que estén este verano cerca de Águilas, seguro mucho veraneante capitalino. Ojalá poder verte de nuevo en concierto o en otro papel pronto 🙏
    Ojalá ese instrumento que Dios te dio y que has cultivado con tanto esmero siga funcionando con tanta maestría y tino por muchos años 😎

      @@LisetteOropesaSoprano Hi, I am a big fan of yours, in a book called "The origins of the Coloratura soprano", there is a mention of you wanting to be a "high coloratura soprano ",
      Is there any specific reason for this and who do you consider true high coloratura?
