A soprano "who can combine alluring long-spun lyrical singing with
dazzling, sometimes demonic, coloratura flights" (The New York Times),
Renée Fleming keeps giving us more reasons to treasure her as "the
people's diva:" in recent years earning the National Medal of Arts,
winning her fourth Grammy Award, and performing as a musical
ambassador at events from the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony to the
Olympics to the Super Bowl. Beloved for the defining roles she has
played in Metropolitan Opera productions staged especially for her, in
recital Fleming embraces grand arias alongside moody lieder and
delicate French songs, peppered with favorites from the Great American
Songbook.
