Le lacrime di Eros - La messaggeria

zongen trouwens ook nog mezzosopraan Katia Ledoux en tenor Zachary Wilder, ook zij zongen bijzonder goed

Andrea Chénier - Bersi

Katia Ledoux, in the role of Bersi, Maddelena’s servant, was positively dynamism personified, with a voice to match. The French mezzo-soprano made her mark early in Act two, now a merveilleuse, where she sings of the Revolution. She has a positively huge, attention-grabbing clarion voice, and I suspect that she is destined for bigger and greater things.

Gounod - Roméo et Juliette - Gertrude

Die Rolle von Juliettes treuer Gefährtin Gertrude war mit Katia Ledoux besetzt. Sie meisterte ihre Partie der wissenden Begleiterin, ebenfalls überzeugend.

Read this article

The role of Gertrude is rather small, but Katia Ledoux’s velvety mezzo didn’t fail to catch my attention in it. She also acted with great dignity.
