Brava, Karen!!
Susan Schneider
> Karen's voice is huge; her top quite secure & ringing; her low notes the > envy of a basso. It is a voice full of character & she colors it > wonderfully to display the appropriate emotion of the moment - she has a way > of drawing you into the character, rather than "throwing it out" to the > audience, as it were. Overall a true contralto, with that dusky, dark > timbre. I never heard the "I was a constant, faithful wife", from The Bear & > enjoyed her comic touches, especially the sarcastic laughter at the end. > > I hope that some casting directors see this, because should you be in need > of a La Cieca, Erda, Madelon, look no further - guaranteed, Karen will steal > the show!!!
