Singing at St. John's Lunchtime Recital

As a conductor and a soprano, singing is always the best way to express. That is the reason why I love to get into music and work as a musician.

Weeks ago I was giving a short performance in the lunchtime recital at St. John's Cathedral.

What a wonderful time singing!
