Go, Jamie! Cardiff winner gets unexpected role
UncategorizedMezzo Jamie Barton, popular winner of BBC’s Cardiff Singer of the World, is a late jump-in for San Francisco’s Norma.
Daveda Karanas has withdrawn in mid-rehearsals ‘for personal reasons’. Jamie will sing Adalgisa from September 5 opposite Sondra Radvanovsky’s Norma.
Wonderful opportunity for a young singer. I hope it helps to open many doors for her!
She was wonderful in this role at the Met. There are several recordings of the performance available on youtube. Get there if you can!
