Send us Fan Mail This week on The CVH Podcast, I talk about something we don't discuss nearly enough: the moment a singer realizes the professional career they worked so hard for may never become the career they hoped for. Opera is a brutal business in one particular way. It takes years, sometimes decades, just to find out whether you're a viable commodity. And even then, being good enough and being able to make a living are two very different things. There's pain in that realization. There's...
Send us Fan Mail Episode 318: Don G Reality 🎙️ Chatting about the upcoming opening, life on the road, and the realities of building a career in this business. The anticipation, the uncertainty, and everything that happens between the big moments. Listen now.
Send us Fan Mail EPISODE 317 🎙️ San Francisco. Chicago. Back again. This week: the San Francisco Opera orchestra strike, getting into Don Giovanni in Chicago, and the reality of traveling between two cities while trying to give both shows everything. Plus an update on the album—and a personal ask. If you’ve been following this whole journey with me, I’d love for you to own a piece of it. Signed copies of my debut solo album are available to preorder at christianvanhorn.com New CVH Podcast out...
Send us Fan Mail Episode 316 🎙️ The next few weeks are shaping up to be completely insane as I commute back and forth between Chicago and San Francisco. I’m talking through the chaos, the possibility that opening night of Simon Boccanegra hangs in the balance amid contract negotiations with the orchestra, and all things CVH—including the self-titled debut album. A lot is up in the air. Let’s get into it.

Send us Fan Mail Most of us spend years learning how to sing... and almost no time learning how to build a career. For Podcast #314, tenor Ben Bliss came all the way to my home in Virginia to sit down and talk about both. Ben's new book, Making It Work: The Practical Guide to Financial and Entrepreneurial Literacy for Freelancers in the Performing Arts, tackles the side of this profession that rarely gets taught—money, contracts, business, long-term thinking, and how to make a life in the art...
Send us Fan Mail Why do singers cancel? Episode 313 of the CVH Podcast is a conversation about something audiences rarely see: the importance of stepping away. Life on the road is a privilege, but staying healthy, recharging, and remembering why we do it all matters just as much as the performances themselves. I also share an update on the upcoming album and everything happening in CVH World. Listen wherever you get your podcasts, and join the mailing list at christianvanhorn.com for exclusiv...
Send us Fan Mail Episode 312 of THE CVH PODCAST The classical recording industry is broken. Streaming has transformed the way we listen to music—but for many classical artists, it has also made traditional recording projects financially unsustainable. In this episode, I explain where the money actually goes, why major label recordings often generate surprisingly little income for the artists themselves, and why so many singers simply stop recording altogether. I'm also making the case for a d...
