Digital Booklet
|
"... a peaceful and very personal selection of music from her homeland, in which she is ably supported by the renowned Latvian Radio Choir ... Garança has a creamy, rich voice which imbues every phrase with feeling and subtlety. The blending of traditional Latvian spiritual music with opera works well and this album should reinforce her position as one of today's outstanding voices and performers."
- Classic FM
Superb Latvian mezzo-soprano Elīna Garança's quiet satisfaction with life is reflected on her 2014 release Meditation, featuring a programme spanning 400 years of sacred and spiritual music by composers including Mozart, Bizet and Puccini. The pieces chosen for this album represent a true sense of inner peace and fulfillment for Garança.
“My life is so happy that I feel infinite gratitude: for my colleagues, my family, my voice and for all the great composers.”
- Elīna Garança
