Singing and healing

by Kim Shippey

Rhonda Hutchinson-Brooks grew up in Melbourne, Australia, and trained as a singer at the Juilliard School of Music in New York. Under the name Rhonda Bruce, she spent eight years with the English National Opera, Scottish Opera, and at Covent Garden in London, performing regularly in concert for the BBC, and with major orchestras around Britain, and in France and Germany.

When she returned to Australia, Ms. Bruce was a principal soprano with the Australian Opera Company for fourteen years, and also taught singing at the Victorian College of Arts, Melba College, and the Faculty of Music at the University of Melbourne.

More recently, she entered the full-time practice of Christian Science healing, helping others in their everyday lives. In a Sentinel interview, we asked her to reflect on an unusually varied and rich career.
