Background: The balmy lagoon of Venice is a long way from the chill waters of America's most northern state, but Alaska-born mezzo soprano Vivica Genaux now lives near La Serenissima, and Antonio Vivaldi, the city's emblematic composer, figures prominently in her repertoire. This album of Vivaldi arias features numbers from a dozen or so operas and includes five arias receiving their first recording. "Genaux might be the most exciting singer in the world. Sinewy but lithe, her voice encompasses a wine-rich chest register, juiced up with just enough testosterone to keep things interesting, as well as luminous high notes that would do many a soprano proud. Her Italian is crisp and peppery, and she rips through pages of runs and embellishments with jaw-dropping ease." Time Out New York on Bel canto arias, Virgin Classics. "Vivica Genaux gives a show-stopping display" - Gramophone on Vivaldi's Bajazet, Virgin Classics. |
