Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the stellar German soprano Juliane
Banse brings you – „Per Amore.” Rather than being a standard
program of love duets and tearjerkers, Ms. Banse has selected a highly
intelligent recital that offers an operatic perspectives of love, from a
woman’s point-of-view. Throughout her career, Juliane Banse has
distinguished herself not only for the beauty of her singing, but for the
depth of her characterizations and deep empathy with the emotional
world of the women she is portraying, whether they are shy or sly,
seductive or suffering. In addition to perennial favorites from Mozart and
Puccini, Bizet and Gounod, Ms. Banse has included lesser-known arias
from “Der Freischütz” by Weber, “Eugen Onegin” by Tchaikovsky, “The
Bartered Bride” by Smetana and “Manon” by Massenet. Price: $27.98 |
