Nobody Inspired Me More Than Julie Andrews,

That Was When I Realised That Music Is The Most Profound, Magical Form Of Communication There Is.

As Far As I Was Concerned The Important Thing Was That The Music Was Getting The Attention As Well As Me So It Was Always A Great Way To Get More Of The Public To Connect With Classical Music, And Opera Particularly.

I Would Just Like To Say That Opera Is No Longer About Fat People In Breastplates Shattering Wine Glasses.

And Woven Into The Fabric Of This Harsh Existence Was Music.

Singing Is An Arduous Business And It Needs Sacrifices.
