But the previous day had brought a revelation with a recital of various composers from the enchanting soprano Mariann Fjeld Olsen and pianist Bernt Wilhelmsson. The empathy between the two was palpable and the atmosphere they created was audience-embracing. The ending will always remain with me.

Soprano Mariann Fjeld Olsen quickly distinguished herself with a polished, rounded tone that filled the West Garden Court.

The “Song to the Moon,” from Dvorák’s “Rusalka,” sat beautifully with Olsen’s voice, which blossomed on a gorgeous and potent high note at the end.Charles T. Downey – Washington Post
