“The most important professor was for me Marta Boháčová, because she was not only an excellent teacher and singer, but also a human personality. She influenced me so much.
Each student has his own personality so it’s important to respect it and not its suppression. That is my philosophy of teaching.
The concert in Carnegie Hall and also the part of Maddalena in Mexico are the most important achievements in my carreer.
My favorite performer is the Czech mezzosoprano Clémence Kalas who lived in Brasil.
I would choose the humanitary project which support the research of cancer.
I wouldn’t bring any CDs on a deserted island.”
