She attracted national attention by winn- ing the Metropolitan Opera audition in 1981. She has gone on to perfom with many prestigious opera companies and orchestras including Metropolitan Opera, Vienna State Opera, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Boston Sym- phony Orchestra and Pitt- sburgh Symphony. Ms. Dubinbaum studied voice at the University of Arizona, but she admits to informal studying all her life with her musical family. "I came out singing," she said. Her mother, Ruth Dubin- baum, is a voice teacher in Phoenix. She is the voice teacher of the cantor at Temple Beth El in Phoenix. "I feel I'm privileged to be on stage and part of music," said Ms. Dubinbaum. About her role in Madame Butterfly she adds, "I don't play it as a secondary character. I play it as a supporting role."
