singing her solo line in the Benedictus of the Mozart Requiem. She's got a voice like an emerald.

Then she turns to the orchestra and smiles; and she's got a smile like a jewel too. She looks at each member of the orchestra, and we all know there's someone at the front of the stage who absolutely adores us.

I'm serious...This woman takes the label diva to heights never before seen. It's going to be a great concert!

3. I can get you in free
for the dress rehearsal. But they won't give us comps for the performance. The soprano's name is Helen Donath, and she's originally from Texas...

4. I love that requiem
And you paint a picture that I can see vividly in my mind. Wish I could be there, too.
