Hi! My name is Gentry Wessman, and I am a mezzo-soprano vocal performance major currently studying at Texas State University. I was recently honored to be invited to the La Musica Lirica young artist program in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. This program will improve my opera skills through intense vocal, Italian, and operatic training. While training in these topics, I will also be performing in Puccini's "Suor Angelica" through this program. This once-in-a-lifetime program will seriously benefit my future in opera and classical music. In order to travel to Italy and study with esteemed opera coaches and voice teachers, I need your help! This GoFundMe will help cover the financial costs of the program. Whether you donate or share this GoFundMe, anything helps me achieve my dreams! Thank you!
