She recalls that she used to remind herself to control her voice so as to ensure that even the weaker sounds could reach the audiences seated in the back row.
She says that once, after performing an aria, she heard someone in the audience exclaiming that she was wearing a microphone, which she wasn't. But the comment left her pleased instead of offended.
"It proved that my voice did penetrate, and the stones did a wonderful job of spreading the sound," she says.
As an opera artist, He lives a disciplined life to protect her voice. In the past few years, she fell in love with painting, which has allowed her to express her understanding for opera and the beauty of music in a new dimension. She has since created artworks such as a portrait of Floria Tosca and an abstract painting named after the beloved aria Recondita armonia.
