Falcon

Description

Contemporaine de Pauline Viardot et de la Malibran, Cornélie Falcon fut l'une des étoiles du beau chant français, combinant graves généreux et puissants et aigus stratosphériques. The Polish soprano Aleksandra Kurzak and the Morphing Orchestra embrace her repertoire and her history by revisiting the milestones of her triumph, from the roles of Donna Anna and La Comtesse by Rossini (Le Comte Ory) to the creations of Halévy (La Juive), Meyerbeer (Les Huguenots), Spontini (La Vestale) and Niedermeyer (Stradella). In this striking incarnation, Aleksandra Kurzak shines a light on one of the most sensational artisans of the radiance of French opera, blending virtuosity, beauty of line with unequaled expressive and dramatic force.
