Heather Hjelle makes her debut with LIEDER ALIVE!

Last summer, Heather was in residence with The American Wagner Project in Reno, Nevada, where she connected with master Coach and Pianist John Parr, who — on the strong recommendation of faculty member and renowned dramatic mezzo-soprano Dolora Zajick — invited her to perform an all-Wagner program with LIEDER ALIVE!
