A brief stay

Yes, I realize that its been nearly 2 years sine I have blogged. Sorry about that! ...I guess between gigs, life, whatever... my blogging has fallen between the cracks. Well, the '09-'10 season has proven to be incredibly exciting thus far!! I started the season with my debut at Seattle Opera as Germont in La Traviata! It was my first time in the Pacific NorthWest and I absolutely FELL IN LOVE! The Ray's BoatHouse, I Love Sushi, Macrina Bakery, Bakery Nouveau, Phuket, Cyclops, ...I could go on and on - and thats just the great restaurants! The views are amazing, the weather was perfect!! I had the honor of being asked back to Seattle to sing my first Ford in Falstaff this winter and again, Seattle amazed me. Its a great town, great people, great food, and GREAT OPERA! So, besides performing in Seattle, I kicked off the new year with a recital in my hometown, Spring, TX. My mother played for me and many of our closest friends and family were able to attend. It truly was a pleasure sharing the stage with my VERY talented mother! Next up is Carmina Burana here in Dallas with the symphony…


Happy New Year… almost!

I feel terrible for not keeping up with my blogging for any of you who happen to get curious as to what might be happening in the life of Weston. A quick recap of the last few months...

November started off with a wonderful concert of Carmina Burana with the Oklahoma City Phil with a dear colleague I hadnt seen since my first summer in Santa Fe! I then headed off to NYC for some auditions and to get new headshots (see website) grin and then of course Houston for Thanksgiving with the family.

December included another trip to NYC for more auditions and headshot touchups, re-shoots and the like and then back to Dallas to work on Boheme. I am very much looking forward to my debut with The Dallas Opera in February as Schaunard in La Boheme. To date I am a Bohemian virgin! I'm not quite sure how that happened over the years...but I have yet to cross paths with Marcello or Schaunard...so, I figure I might as well prepare them…
