There should be no change in your singing style for opera. The definition on an opera is simply that the entire thing is sung - there's no speaking. To sing in an opera, you have to have a very strong voice, as well as good articulation. Meg and Carlotta are very different parts. . . You need to pick one before you go into auditions. Carlotta is very over the top, whereas Meg is very reserved.
