ST LOUIS (January 4, 2011) — American soprano Marlissa Hudson has been described as a 'superb lyric coloratura' (St. Louis Post-Dispatch). With widely varied roles both on the operatic and concert stage, including Bess in Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess and Zerbinetta in Strauss’ Ariadne auf Naxos, Ms. Hudson continues to earn glowing critical reviews. In an age where the classical music industry competes to maintain and attract new audiences, the very charming Marlissa, accompanied by pianist Peter Henderson, offers a new voice. The album is refreshing, conservatively mixed for intimate listening. In my opinion, the sampling of composers is deliberately mixed, as composer and producer Fred Onovwerosuoke puts it, "music by new American immigrants along with the usual staple of standard repertoire.” This CD draws both classical music buffs and music enthusiasts, alike.
