“The soft pure tones of Mescheriakova…were ravishing to behold” (The Toronto Star). The Russian soprano Marina Mescheriakova has established herself as one of the most exciting voices in the opera and concert world. She is constantly in demand at major opera houses including the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, Paris, Vienna and Berlin. Here she presents a recital of the major bel-canto heroines such as Luisa Miller and Norma and contrasts these with two arias in her mother tongue from Francesca da Rimini and Eugene Onegin.
