It’s been a busy first week at @aimsingraz!! From singing in a masterclass with the wonderful Roberta Cunningham, to having the opportunity to perform on the first orchestra concert, Eviva Verdi!, with Maestro Marzio Conti.

Thank you so much to the team who has helped make this possible. Wayne Wyman, our incredible orchestra coach; Eric Trudel, the talented coach I’m lucky enough to work with this summer; Allison Acord, an astonishing teacher who I can’t wait to learn more from;Sarah Halley, the esteemed leader of AIMS who gave me this opportunity; and of course Erin Palmer, who helped make AIMS possible for me.

And of course an incredibly thank you to all of the other incredibly talented musicians I’ve had the privilege of sharing the stage with so far. From the pianists to the orchestra, everyone here is so incredibly talented and hardworking and it’s a honor to work with them.

A three-week language immersion in Florence provided Shepherd’s second-year master’s voice students with an unforgettable educational experience, generously made possible by the Margaret C. Pack Language Institute for Singers.

Current graduate student Jessica Lyublinsky shared about the impact of the trip:

“Italian is not only the quintessential operatic language but has also been a fundamental part of my artistic training from the very start of my vocal journey. I remember being a teenager singing Italian songs and arias, not realizing that those would pave the way to my love for Verdi, Puccini, Rossini and the great and timeless opera composers we love today.

Listening to Italian spoken on the streets, in cafés, and in our classrooms often felt like listening to music itself, with vowels flowing seamlessly into one another in a way that no textbook can fully capture. Listening to the language reaffirmed why we create music: opera is an extension of the world we live in, the emotions we feel and the conversations we have in real life. What we heard was the legato of the language, the legato that so easily becomes music. We didn’t just study this language. We became part of it.

My favourite memories have to be walking up to the Ponte Vecchio, alongside the Arno river with my friends, as well as visiting the Uffizi Museum. I'm a huge history buff so spending 5 hours in that museum was time well spent. And walking through the Ponte Vecchio felt like walking through history - also realizing that by engaging in an artform like opera, we are part of that history, as well.

I also loved sharing my mornings with my best friends in this program, having our daily coffee breaks between classes and generally experiencing the vibe of Florence. We are so lucky to be students at The Shepherd School of Music!”

I am incredibly grateful for my two years at Rice. The thing I’ll miss the most about @shepherd_school is the warm and inspiring community that I was surrounded by everyday. Thank you everyone for making my time here so special. What a wonderful place.

Two years attending @shepherd_school and two years making countless memories and achievements. While getting my master's degree was the intended goal, I can't believe how many connections and laughs I was able to find along the way. This degree and chapter has been and will always be one of my life's biggest blessings.

I truly can't thank @robinrice907 @jwinograde @ninosanikidze @bethanyselfcoach @tiahj66 @lyndsisue @alexvmunger & @rachchao enough for the countless hours of support, teaching, coaching, & knowledge they gave to me. Not to mention the continued support!

To my mom, Linden Bat Asherah. Thank you for always being there for me and believing in my capabilities. You are the best mother I could ask for and I am so happy you raised me. I'll always be there for you no matter where this career takes me.

Go Owls!!🦉🦉🦉
