About this listen

In this episode, we talk to Danielle de Niese. The internationally acclaimed soprano has dazzled audiences since childhood – from her breakthrough on the TV show Young Talent Time at just nine years old to starring on the world’s greatest opera stages. She joins us to chat about her life in music, and what keeps her voice – and spirit – so vibrant. Following a remarkable path which also includes an early Emmy win and teenage debut with the Los Angeles Opera, de Niese now has a passion for making opera feel fresh, cool and accessible to new audiences. Hosting this conversation – about everything from backstage rituals and vocal care to what it truly feels like to stand under stage lights and inhabit a role – is Spectrum editor Melanie Kembrey.
