On this week’s program, we celebrate the artistic legacy of Spanish mezzo-soprano Teresa Berganza, who died May 13 at the age of 89. The unique vocal characteristics that brought her accolades for her interpretations of Mozart, Rossini, Bizet, in zarzuela, and more, also made Teresa Berganza a remarkable performer in baroque and renaissance repertory. This is the repertory we’ll hear her in on this week’s edition of Baroque&Before.
Tonight’s selections are from Brava Berganza! A Birthday Tribute:DG 289 477 5489.
Tonight’s program will be available on demand for two weeks following the broadcast.
