Soloist in MAHLER SYMPHONY NO. 8
Orchestre de Paris
“An extraordinary event…the quartet of soloists, including Jamie Barton, magnificently projected the verses of Goethe. The public's trance, as soon as the final chord fades, reflects the just enthusiasm that such an accomplished interpretation of this world work arouses.”
–Díapason
“The assembled octet confirms its suitability for the formidable demands of the work. Barton’s golden tone and insistent projection work wonders.”
–Forum Opéra
“The soloists, including Jamie Barton, were cast perfectly. They defended their scores with ardor and tenderness in both parts, managing to be heard above the tutti chorus and orchestra of the Veni Creator.”
–Première Loge
“Barton’s ample and brassy instrument projects easily despite the enormous force accompanying her solos, and delivers a lesson in singing in just a few phrases both through the depth of her bass and the roundness of her upper midrange.”
–Olyrix
