So this happened last night.....
Thank you for the EPIC amount of messages/wishes. I can tell you that a @MetOpera jump in as Norma is not for the faint hearted!
But, I got to make MUSIC to the highest level with fab colleagues, and that's the part I'm most grateful for.
Thank you to @_bridgetdavies for this lovely review in The Age today’s of our Trovatore for Melbourne Opera. Only 3 shows remaining this week.
Don’t miss out Melbourne!
So many twists and turns, part of an almost inconceivable series of events in Verdi’s Il Trovatore, keep the audience on its toes. Dir. Matthew Barclay builds on that foundation with storytelling of electrifying intensity and detail in @MelbourneOpera’s new, must-see production.
I'm very proud and delighted to share this live broadcast from my performance of Strauss Four Last Songs with the ASO and the magnificent Mark Wigglesworth.
I hope you enjoy.

As far as dressing rooms go, I've definitely struck the jackpot.
My first AIDA, in concert at The Sydney Opera House is happening TOMORROW!
What a joy.
Whoever thought that allowing this man and I to be in the same cast, and on the opera house stage this weekend, is clearly bonkers.
But I love them for it.
What a joy to be doing this job alongside the classy act that that is Peter Coleman-Wright.
AIDA debut here I come.
Strauss Four Last Songs
ASO with Mark Wigglesworth.

'Dix’s bel canto voice is superbly suited to the work, and her vocal performance was magnificent...her control enabled the music to flow gently and unhurriedly in a most memorable performance.'
Limelight mag.
This weekend, I get to perform Strauss' Vier Letzte Lieder alongside the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, with none other than Maestro Wigglesworth.
A man whom I greatly admire, and a colleague whom I treasure.
Dreams really do come true.
'In the Dvorak, Dix was clear and lustrous as she spun out the soprano line, sounding extraordinary on soft high notes....The echoing phrases between Dix and Petruccelli, both voices free and radiant, were quite literally spine-tingling.'
