He explained to PEOPLE, "She started from ground zero. She had never sung before. I don't think I've ever seen someone make such a huge difference from the first day to the last day."

"Her desire to do a great job overrode anything that might stop her."

Eric explained that training someone to sing opera is a unique experience, as there's rarely a steady beat to follow. He tells, "It ebbs and it flows. It goes a little faster here, a little slower there. So to do that, I mean, you have to really be musical."

"It was the most thrilling day of all of our time spent together. I was like, 'This is it. She can do it. She's the perfect person to play this role.' And I'm someone who loved Maria Callas — I really did. She was one of my favorite opera singers, and so it really touched me that she was able to do it like this."


"I feel like anything she decided to do, she probably could do. She's a remarkable human being. She really inspired me to always give 150% every minute of the day, because she does."
