Jamie Barton sings Mahler, Dvořák, & Sibelius
Congrats to Jamie Barton who was just given this year's Beverly Sills Award! I've been listening to her excellent recital disc "All Who Wander" which showcases not only her smoldering instrument but also her obvious affinity for art songs. In interviews she comes across as an extremely well-spoken and humble young artist, but it's also nice to see that she can ham it up, as evidenced by this kooky clip of current rehearsals for the Met's upcoming Rusalka. I am very much looking forward to her Fricka in next year's SF Ring.
