4.0 out of 5 stars
Promising recital debut, July 16, 2003
This review is from: DEBUT ~ Michelle DeYoung - Duparc · Wagner · Liszt · R. Strauss Songs / Kevin Murphy (Audio CD)
Yes, De Young does have some wide vibrato which doesn't serve her brilliantly on the Du Parc songs, which I think require a creamier, more delicate voice. However, I think she does a very
good job on the other songs. I think the relatively rare piano
duet versions of Wagner's "Wesondonck Lieder" are quite effective, though I agree the Liszt and Strauss lieder are the most outstanding things here. Murphy does an excellent job
throughout. Promising debut--though her orchestral work still
more intriguing at this pointI think. Yes, a singer in the Ludwig/Janet Baker mold.
