Critically acclaimed for her rich voice and masterful musicality, French-Canadian mezzo-soprano Michele Losier presents her first solo recital with the ATMA Classique label. Losier has distinguished herself in many opera roles including Ascanio at the Dutch National Opera, Medea at Theatre des Champs-Elysees and Lille Opera, Prince Charmant at Opera-Comique, Nicklausse at Teatre del Liceu and many others. "I was pregnant with my first child when I chose the songs for this recording. I felt simultaneously calm and overjoyed. I particularly remember the impressino the lullaby Dors ami made on me: it deeply moved by maternal heart," she says. Pianist Olivier Godin accompanies Losier in a program of French melodies by Gounod, Massenet, Franck, Bizet and Saint-Saens.
