From one young singer who left her academy without permission to sing at her audition in Valencia, to another being interrupted in his dressing room by the artistic director of Teatro Real, we hear the unusual journeys of three young artists at the Centre de Perfeccionament, Palau de les Arts in Valencia.  We have conversations on how to perform your best under pressure, ways of getting through feeling deeply overwhelmed and hear about the importance of using the tools at your fingertips and making the most of every single opportunity.
