"A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song." Maya Angelou

"Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start. When you read you being with A-B-C, when you sing you begin with DO-RE-MI."

So I did start a blog earlier on this year, but I lost interest in it very quickly. I have now also forgotten my username and password for my old blog. So here I am, silly me. Starting again.

I am currently a second year music student at The University of Edinburgh and one day I hope to enter the professional world. It is my love, my dream and nothing makes me happier than when I am singing. Whether in a foreign language or in my native English, I just love to tell a story through music. It's a big hope but as Mozart once said, "Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love that is the soul of genius." Music is in everybody's lives in some way or another and when music fails to agree to the ear, to soothe the ear and the heart and the sense, then it has obviously missed the point.

I will come and go to this blog when I have time to write it in amoungst RSNO Chorus rehearsals, EUMS rehearsals, NYCoS rehearsals, singing lessons, uni work and my non-existant social life.

Viva Verdi! Ciao for now
