Painting with words: Anna Caterina Antonacci at Wigmore Hall

Anna Caterina Antonacci, Voix humaine par excellence, appelée par le piano complice de Donald Sulzen à l’Opéra de Lyon

Anna Caterina Antonacci's rare appearance in New York was another rewarding occasion to savor, with a recital of French songs followed by an unforgettable performance of Poulenc's La voix humaine.

This Easter, New Yorkers had a rare chance to hear soprano Anna Caterina Antonacci in Alice Tully Hall. It was only Antonacci’s second appearance in the city, but based on the warm welcome she received from the audience, her reputation preceded her. And by the end of this outstanding recital, it was clear that the city has been missing out on her artistry.

Während sich Les Siècles wieder als lautmalerisch vortrefflicher Tonsetzer zeigt, wird dem Chor leider zu wenig Berlioz-Mephisto-Drama eingeimpft.

Each of the works are particularly radiant in themselves, but made even more so as they were presented here.
