The first of a projected annual Chicago-Paris exchange of singers supported by the Committee of Chicago Sister Cities International is slated for this summer. This project is a collaborative singers workshop lasting for eight days beginning June 3 with three master teachers. Claudia Hommel is one of those teachers. She was born in Paris, grew up in Detroit and has lived in Chicago for many years performing in the cabaret tradition. She joins us with details about the program. (Photo: Flickr/Tallapragada)
