Christiane Libor press reviews

“The soprano Christiane Libor gives a brilliant performance as Ada, singing with a blazing top and a compelling range of colors.”

George Loomis, New York Times, April 1, 2009

“Mais la triomphatrice de la soirée – et revelation parisienne – aut sans doute Christiane Libor, wagnérienne accomplice, capable de fortissimo implacables comme d’aigus files imperceptibles.”

Maxime Kaprielian, www.resmusica.com, March 30, 2009

“…la soprano Christiane Libor passé en force et manqué d’agilité.”

Christian Merlin, Le Figaro, March 30, 2009

“The revelation and reward is Christiane Libor’s roof-raising Ada, a dramatic soprano with the goods.”

Francis Carlin, Financial Times, March 30, 2009

“Remember the name Christiane Libor. After much buzz in Vienna, the promise suggested by her stupendous Senta in Graz last season was fulfilled by her Ariadne…Libor unquestionably ranks as one of the greatest Ariadnes in the past three decades, and maybe even tops that august list. Most importantly is the quality of her voice, the sheer beauty of tone from top to bottom. Her soprano is huge, plumy, power and under perfect control…The Berlin-born soprano has the perfect voice for Strauss, easily negotiating low-lying passages without forcing, blooming on top notes, effortlessly pouring out tidal waves of golden tone…”

Larry L. Lash, Opera News, August 2008
