Abstract:
This Senior Honors Thesis Recital is a culmination of four years of voice lessons. It is an example of the different emotions, roles, and languages a mezzo-soprano is able to sing. It is an example of what I have learned and accomplished through voice lessons, choir, and music classes at Ball State. You will hear Italian, French, German, and English songs, along with many different genres and emotions in the CD of my recital. Each piece has lyrics provided and a translation for the songs in French, German, and Italian, located in the written rationale.
