Bye, bye Poppea! It was in 2006 when William Christie came to the Haute Ecole de Musique in Geneva thanks to my teacher @dadabor, and I sang a baroque piece for first time ever in my life. I was transported to this wonderful world by the Master of this music and I am so grateful for this! I thank you dear Maestro to discover my talent for the world and trust me when I was a beginner. I learned from you to love the music in its pure state and to serve it in the most humble way. Because for the music and art we live our lives. I was the happiest to share with you this month at @salzburgerfestspiele and bring this so demanding music to the very special audience here. Cheers to many more baroque operas together! @lesartsflo ❤️❤️❤️ #jardindesvoixgeneration2007 #sonyayoncheva #fromverditomonteverdi
