CD Reviews

Virginia Opera Juliua Caesar

Mezzo lover | 07/02/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a superb performance, with three counter-tenors singing in lead roles, and Sujung Kim as Cleopatra."

An AMAZING contralto

Mezzo lover | New York, NY USA | 01/13/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This disk proves that you don't need a New York or London based house to produce fine opera.

The three countertenors (noted in other reviews here) would seem to be the draw on this recording, each with a distinct sound, from David Sabella's heroic Caesar to Robert Crowe's heartbreaking Sextus.

But the real "find" of this recording is Malin Fritz as Cornelia. Her musicality is superb, and the voice itself is astonishing: a dark, rich true contralto, absolutely secure in the fioratura passages.

Let's hope we hear more from this young singer."
