As I am enjoying my retirement in Italy, playing tennis only for fun, my opera singing wife has been busy creating her first online singing course, with 66 videos, pdfs and either group lessons or 1:1 lessons included. The launch offer/enrollment is available for only two weeks, so if you know someone who wants to be coached by one of the few real Bel Canto teachers in the world, send them her way. Her teacher and Maria Callas had the same singing teacher, so it is proper Bel Canto. I’ll post some pics and updates soon from my new tennis club, where I have a lot of fun, overlooking Lake Garda and the Alps. 😎

"If you don't have the Bel Canto, you cannot sing any opera, as a matter of fact, not even the most modern." (Maria Callas,1968)
