Chen Reiss (soprano) L’arte del mondo, Werner Ehrhardt Chen Reiss appears in leading roles at La Scala, Vienna State Opera, Bavarian State Opera, Semperoper Dresden, Deutsche Oper Berlin, Hamburg State Opera, and Frankfurt Opera. She also sang the soundtrack to the film ‘Das Parfum’ (Perfume) with the Berlin Philharmonic under Sir Simon Rattle. Chen Reiss starred with Rolando Villazon on German TV in an opera gala show. She sings Sophie in Der Rosenkavalier in December 2011 at the Staatsoper Wien. “What a stimulating assemblage of arias, and in intelligent, standard-setting performances...Unexpected insights arrives at every turn...Reiss makes [Salieri and Cimarosa] feel like worthy companions, always looking to find their specific character and never falling into soubrette cuteness...My favourite moment is how wonderstruck her Susanna sounds while absorbing the beauties of the night in the Act 4 Figaro aria.” Gramophone Magazine, November 2011 “Reiss has an agile, bell-bright, fluty timbre that's well suited to the soubrette and coloratura repertoire here. She's best in the showy numbers - the glittering roulades of the Mozart concert aria 'Ah se in ciel' and Salieri's 'Tremo bell'idol mio' are bright and fresh. She also displays a lovely line in the short, sweet 'Quando la rosa'” Classic FM Magazine, December 2011 *** “Reiss is a properly pert Despina (Cosi) and an affecting Susanna...Her attention to detail in the recitative is scrupulous...Reiss's diamond bright coloratura is a mighty weapon...All told, this is a beguiling combination of top-drawer musicianship and fresh ideas about opera in Enlightenment Vienna.” BBC Music Magazine, January 2012 ***** BBC Music Magazine

This disc has been nominated ‘Best Buy’ in the September 2006 issue of Classic FM magazine. “Allied to her technical accomplishment are her flawless intonation and fleshy tone, with its delicate range of colours, and an essential factor of artistic personality. Under Sebastian Weigle the Swedish Chamber Orchestra provides an unbroken sequence of immaculate accompaniments.” BBC Music Magazine, September 2006 **** “Persson has rightly won accolades for her Glyndebourne Fiordiligi, compensating for any lack of heroic weight with her sweet, gleaming timbre, her clean negotiation of the wide intervals… and her natural elegance of style. …this is a delectable recital, not least in an enchantingly deft and spirited performance of the waltz-song 'Un moto di gioia' (another substitute aria for Susanna) that aptly gives the disc its name.” Gramophone Magazine, September 2006 | | | (also available to download from $10.75) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
