"Teresa Berganza stressed that singers should not
sacrifice everything because this will not only make
for a very sad and empty life after retirement, but
will also make their singing arid, and bereft of the
juice, the mellowness, that comes from living life to
the full. She is deeply happy to have had her children
while still young because this helped her strike the
right balance between her public and private life."

In other words, you are a better, deeper, more moving
Norma than someone who has never had children.

A question: How in the world do you make it work?
When do you have time to practice, take lessons, or go
to auditions, and what do you do when on the road?
I'd love to know.
