Singing in the Studio

Today I sang “Habanera” from Bizet’s opera Carmen in the studio. I love singing that song. I had to work up an opera program for a library concert this past fall, and I took many songs I had sung only as a solo singer, and worked up harp arrangements of the accompaniments so I could perform the opera concert on Harp & Voice. “Habanera” was one I learned for that concert, and then just this past month I was hired to record it for a special project. I’ll have to check with my employer to see when I’m allowed to let out any details about the project, but it has been great fun working on it. I do think I can safely say that it involves – animatronic puppets!
