Soprano Measha Brueggergosman has emergency open heart surgery

Canadian soprano Measha Brueggergosman underwent emergency surgery on June 10 to repair a split aorta, a rare and often fatal hereditary condition:

"'I am alive, and I'm quite good, I've got to say. Thankful,' she said
by telephone Wednesday. 'But [the surgeons] did saw through my sternum,
so that's going to take a little bit of time.'"

Ms. Brueggergosman made her Celebrity Series debut in November 2007.
