A. Reimann "L'invisible" at Oper Frankfurt
If you are looking for the singer of the season in the near future, you will hardly be able to avoid the fabulous Irina Simmes. As if in front of a gold background, the very slightly dark-grounded, youthful soprano soars upwards and shapes the complex part of the Ygraine with immense intensity as well as fascinating naturalness.
