I am a 20 year old soprano, and I am most DEFINITELY a dramatic. Unfortunately, that means there are no roles for me while I do my undergrad (the most suitable thing for me is what I am currently singing, Mother in "Hansel and Gretel"). Is there any rep a YOUNG dramatic soprano can sing that can be her "own" to make her stand out from the lyrics she is surrounded with? I just don't sound the same attempting typical young soprano lit, like "ah jeux vivre", "V'adoro pupille", etc. Of course, I am not hinting that I sing Verdi or Wagner...I am just asking for rep (art songs and arias ) that would be more suitable for my voice,and that lyrics and coloraturas would not do.
Thanks!
Molly
