MESSAGES FROM DAVID
10 OCT 2007: "I am very happy to be back singing Opera for a Victorian based Opera Company. I am excited about making my role debut as Nemorino in The Elixir of Love. Vocally, this is perfect timing for me. I am also looking forward to 'Through the looking glass' I think that it's important to create new work,I find the challenge stimulating and rewarding. I am fortunate to be working alongside some wonderful singers and colleagues who will make both experiences very worthwhile!" – David

21 NOV 2007: "On behalf of Karina and myself I'd like to say, thanks so much for supporting us and my charity, onTrac@Petermac. It has been a very busy period but we've enjoyed it immensely and we were both very happy to get as far as we did. Congratulations to the production crew for producing such a great show and creating such a wonderful environment to work in. I hope that those who watched enjoyed it as much as we did and we wish Ahn, Luda, Bridie and Craig all the best for the final week." – David
