Overview

To conclude its 2015/16 season, Rosenblatt Recitals welcomes the great Italian soprano Mariella Devia.

Renowned as the queen of bel canto, Devia has had an illustrious career spanning over 40 years. Having undergone a transformation from 'respected to revered' (The New York Times) she brings her 'powerful, appealing voice' (BachTrack) to the Wigmore Hall stage.

‘She was greeted as a conquering heroine on Thursday, with an ovation before she had sung a note, a louder one after her first aria and a tumultuous reception at the end, spurred by her final note, a clear high D.’ (The New York Times)
