Measha Brueggergosman, soprano & Justus Zeyen, piano

Presented by the Vancouver Recital Society

Since her first appearance for the VRS in 2003, Canadian soprano Measha Brueggergosman has become a major star in the opera and vocal firmament. Although she began her career predominantly committed to the art of the song recital, she now effortlessly embraces the broadest array of performance platforms, musical styles, and genres. For this performance, Measha and Justus will be joined by Vancouver ensemble The Black Dog String Quartet.

Measha was a wonder to behold. Her voice had a roundness and supple texture, inviting the listener into the deep pools of expression and emotional resonance. Her delivery had the distinct feeling that every syllable, consonant, vowel and phrase was being uttered as if it were her last, a pleasure from start to finish.
