Interview: Three questions for Gülden Vildan Kavakli
Why are you studying opera?
Opera is my way of expressing myself. I have a deep love for classical music in general, but opera, with its combination of music, acting, and sometimes dance, embodies a rich and diverse form of art
What was your first encounter with opera?
My mother is an opera enthusiast, so she took me to watch operas at a young age. I fell in love with this art form from a very early age.
Which is your favorite opera and why?
The first opera I watched was Bizet's "Carmen". It profoundly impressed me with its music and dance, and it remains my favorite opera to this day.
