She's known to millions around the world as the "Angel of Australia" - the name given to her by that famous Dutch violinist, André Rieu. But today, she joins us for a good old Ramble Chat!

Todays guests is the one and only Mirusia, Australian born Soprano with Dutch heritage that made her name touring the world with Andre Rieu before a flourishing solo career put her CD’s and DVD’s at number one on the Australian ARIA charts.

We sit down in Brisbane Australia, pre-covid, to discuss her Opera career, performing stadium-size concerts all over the world… we even explore the differences between being Dutch and Australian…  in a very silly game I invent called “How do I say this in Dutch” - spoilers I rarely things correctly. 

Quick reminder… follow us wherever you get your podcasts for new episodes every Friday. And check out what I’m up to at Bradleymccawofficial on Instagram and Facebook. Oh also go check out the music from my new Album featuring music legends Louie Shelton (from Monkees, Lionel Ritchie & Jacksons) and Nathan East (Daft Punk, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins). Don’t forget to share this episode with a friend AND visit the show notes for links to Mirusia’s music, tours and latest releases. In fact her new live CD and DVD is gorgeous so definitely check that out. This was a blast to record and think you’re really going to enjoy it so let’s get into it. 

We kick off talking about a charity Mirusia is passionate about the ACMF - and the personal adversity she overcame to become the youngest ever recipient of the prestigious Dame Joan Sutherland Opera Award and then, well… everything else that followed.
