Music & Weights

We started our Monday off strong, talking to soprano Talise Trevigne about morning routines, staying sane in the age of insanity, and what the future of opera looks like (and how to prepare for it).

Michael and Caroline get coffee with Lisette and Steven, and discuss her journey. She discusses asserting herself as an autonomous artist, how losing weight is only a part of the battle, and other singer things.

Freddie epitomizes what Music & Weights is about: he's never rested on his laurels, striving every day to realize his own potential as performer and man. Also, he lost over 100 lbs and built a truckload of muscle along the way.

We rapped with Leah on carving your own path, doing something besides graduate school en route to being a successful opera singer, and what she thinks is important on stage.

Craig Kier is a conductor, educator, and marathon runner. We caught up with him and discussed what opera training programs get right, what they don't, and what young singers can do to stand out from the crowd.

Broadway Blaine drops by to discuss The Vision of The Self, the missing ingredient of "The Secret", and his current favorite workout.

Lucas hits the studio to discuss how to achieve vocal mastery, development as man and artist, and his plans to share what he's learned along the way.

Michael, Caroline, and Soloman talk about the importance of mentorship and modeling, as well as the importance of giving back.

Michael and Michael get real on what it takes to build a voice, build a body, and how the two complement one another.
