All in all, there are 30+ different kinds of roles in opera. 😱 That means there are 30+ different and distinct kinds of singing. (That's nuts to me. Who knew one tiny little offshoot of one genre of classical music could have so much variety?! But anyways.) Men make up 14 of those kinds of roles, but reading about it's no fun at all. So here's what they sound like!

WHO AM I:
Hiya! 👋 I’m Cait, a normal person with a normal job who happened to get all her degrees in opera. Even though I don’t sing full-time anymore, I’ll always love the art (of course!), so now I make videos to help make opera feel more accessible and relevant to people living in, you know, not 1800.

GET IN TOUCH:
I’d love to hear from you! I bucked socials a while ago, so until I can afford a social media manager (lolol), reaching out through the contact form on the Scores Unstitched website is definitely the way to go.
