I shall be in Germany soon, singing opera in Berlin. I was there recently for a week or so, and I thought it was a wonderful city. I've stayed in Frankfurt and Munich in the past, and visited some other places.

I speak German very badly, don't write it at all, but I understand it quite well. I have studied it by myself throughout the years.

I've always liked the German people and wish I could communicate better in their language. I hope that sometime I will get to spend more time there, like I did in France and Italy, and really relax into speaking German.

Nice to meet you all.
