I've heard Meagan Miller at Wolf Trap, as the Countess in Figaro. She's a
beautiful woman
with a lovely voice. When I heard her, she sang a little sharp from time to
time, but I
have no doubt that technical issue has been easily resolved (I think singing
sharp just
means there's too much air going through - much easier to deal with than
singing flat.)
