2011 Rosalinde, Die Fledermaus |
"All the singers displayed expert comic timing and characterisation. Rosalinde (Lynsey Docherty for this performance) was elegant with a dry wit and a beautiful voice." "The soloists were all superb, but Lynsey Docherty's lirico-spinto soprano soared above the choir, creating several of the spine-tingling moments of the concert, especially so in Lux Divinitas." |
