Soloist in Verdi Selections

Dallas Symphony Orchestra

“Barton supplied a coloristic range as vast as the character’s range of emotion, from glowing middle and upper range to strategically brassy chest voice. Of the three singers, she made the most of words.”
–Scott Cantrell, Dallas Morning News

“A Verdian voice with a glowing top and as impressive a chest voice, which she could use differently depending on the words… Barton let loose and gave a blistering reading of “O don fatale” from Verdi’s Don Carlo. Her performance of this soul-bearing aria, capturing every nuance, was the highlight of the concert.”
–Gregory Sullivan Isaacs, Theater Jones
