Reviews

Ms. Ruti Halvani, an acclaimed and superb opera and oratorio soloist... exceptional talent.

Ms Brickman and Ms Halvani brought tears to our eyes, liquid gold to our hearts, and lifted us onto our feet.

Hour of Magic, Willa Caines, Concern Magazine 15/03/03


The poetry of Eastern European art songs "projected with warm appeal.

Miss Halvani came into her own here [singing Jewish Folk songs] and in the Russian songs?her Yiddish diction admirably clear... beautifully mesmeric.

An enjoyable, enriching evening with an enterprising programme choice?one looks forward to future performances by the Halvani-Brickman duo.

Malcolm Miller, Music and Vision Magazine 21/11/02


Ms Halvani's richly developed timbre well suited the opening set of Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky songs, the Russian language incisively projected and the passionate intensity of the text conveyed with subtle dynamics, and conviction.

Her dramatic range and tonal breadth were especially well displayed in Four Israeli Folksongs?highlighting Ms Halvani's versatility.

Malcolm Miller, Music and Vision Magazine 03/07/01


Ruti Halvani, one of the three stars of the 'The Three Sopranos' concert, showed more than the usual amount of charisma and stage presence with her darker, richer mezzo voice, projected with intense expression in the Russian songs.

London Jewish Music Festival, Jewish Chronicle, 12/01



A luscious mezzo-soprano

The set piece songs... the song of the Statue beautifully intoned by Ruti Halvani. Were most effective.
