Supercharged American mezzo-soprano Jennifer Larmore, who has parlayed operatic success in Europe into international stardom, presents a Valentines program of songs on the art of love by Ravel, Bizet and others.
Renowned for her baroque and bel canto coloratura roles, she also excels in romantic and contemporary repertoire and has more than 70 CDs and seven Grammy Award nominations to her name.
The six performances in our two Classical series are made possible by the William R. Kenan, Jr. Trust Endowment.
