Faith Sherman press reviews

“Their poise is matched by Richard Stokes’s translation, by Roderick Williams, Joan Rogers and Faith Sherman (a sensational European debut) in the three roles, and by the orchestra and chorus under Edward Gardner...” —Andrew Clark, Financial Times, July 5, 2009 – The Pilgrim in 'L'amour de loin' for her European debut at ENO

“The American mezzo-soprano Faith Sherman makes a striking debut as the Pilgrim…” —Rupert Christiansen, The Telegraph, July 6, 2009 – The Pilgrim in 'L'amour de loin' for her European debut at ENO

“Faith Sherman's portrayal of the Pilgrim seemed to be the hit of the night. She certainly brought character to the assumption, colourful in her interactions with the others, and affecting at the end, and of all three characters she made the most of Saariaho’s wonderful sleights of hand between arioso and speech at the ends and beginnings of some lines.” —Stephen Graham, Musicalcriticism.com, July 5, 2009 – The Pilgrim in 'L'amour de loin' for her European debut at ENO
