Open Chambers: Hindemith & Shostakovich (2018)

Second Soprano
Opera 5

  • Rachel Krehm’s soprano, with its timpanous resonance, rose to meet the occasion of the muscular utterances characteristic of a string section by Shostakovich.

    Schmopera - Michael Zarathus-Cook

  • Krehm’s steely, almost fearsome sound...found space for her powerful instrument in the shocking expanse of Shostakovich’s Russian settings.

    Schmopera - Jenna Simeonov
