Recording of the Week, Emily D'Angelo - Enargeia

8th October 2021

The young Canadian-Italian mezzo makes a bold debut on Deutsche Grammophon with music by Hildegard von Bingen, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Sarah Kirkland Snider and Missy Mazzoli.

Challenging conventions and pushing boundaries, Emily D’Angelo is a new musical force to be reckoned with - the 26-year-old Italian-Canadian mezzo-soprano is an artist already in high demand at the world’s leading opera houses and concert venues. In summer 2021 she made a highly acclaimed role and house debut as Sesto in La clemenza di Tito at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, in a new production directed by Richard Jones and conducted by Mark Wigglesworth.

Her debut album energeia spotlights female composers, including original pieces by both Mazzoli and Snider, as well as two stunning vocal works by the Oscar-winning Hildur Guðnadóttir.

Reviews

November 2021

D’Angelo is already well on the way to becoming the complete singer. Her mezzo voice has incredible range, depth and power at the lower end combined with crystalline clarity up top, with lovely weight, poise and balance.

8th October 2021

A hauntingly beautiful programme which works its own special magic and marks D'Angelo out as an artist determined to plough her own furrow…one of the lovely things about this album is its seamless integration of the old and the new, which sometimes put me in mind of saxophonist Jan Garbarek’s best-selling collaboration with the Hilliard Ensemble on Officium back in the mid-1990s.
