For Lyric Tenor, Mark T. Panuccio Dedication and Tradition Equal Success
Thursday, October 25th, 2007“I’ve always wanted to be a singer ever since I was a little kid; I first sang in public when I was in kindergarten,” declares Panuccio, as if he never had any doubt about what he wanted to do in life. It’s the day after his debut with the Arizona Opera Company in early October, and he’s relaxing over lunch at Cuvee, one of Tucson’s pleasant eateries, enjoying a salad and a glass of red wine. “It’s okay to have a glass now that the performance is over,” hinting at a life filled with hard work, but not one without enjoyment.
