Review by Libero Farne

 

“Un’altra coppia di performance di autori altrettanto giovani è stata
accomunata dall’interpretazione esaltante, estremamente espressiva del soprano Esther-Elisabeth Rispens, anch’essa giovane e messasi in luce in questi ultimi anni in varie occasioni, anche all’interno della stessa Biennale Musica.”

“Another pair of performances by equally young composers was marked by the exciting, extremely expressive interpretation by the soprano Esther-Elisabeth Rispens, still very young and already a known singer in the Biennale Musica itself.”

“Dat bezaten de vier jonge executanten van het Biennale College Ensemble stuk voor stuk. Maar met de meeste fascinatie heb ik toch geluisterd naar de adembenemende capriolen van de Belgische sopraan Esther-Elisabeth Rispens in de Six Tourbillons.”

“That’s what the four young performers of the Biennale College Ensemble possessed one by one. But with the greatest fascination I have listened to the breathtaking vocal whirls of the Belgian soprano Esther-Elisabeth Rispens in the Six Tourbillons.”

“Dopo aver parlato con Esther-Elisabeth Rispens, che io trovo una cantante straordinaria,una vera sorgente di vocalità, Daniil ha composto per lei una linea di meravigliosa oltranza espressiva, piena di cose difficilissime, che si ripetono ossessivamente con un linguaggio martoriato, disintegrato.”

“After talking to Esther-Elisabeth Rispens, whom I find an extraordinary singer, a true source of vocality, Daniil he composed for her a wonderful line expressive extremity, full of very difficult things, which repeat themselves obsessively with a tortured language, disintegrated.”

COLORISTIC COMPOSERS OFFER STUNNING NEW SCORES

Review by Alexandra Ivanoff

 

“Károlyi and Rispens play multiple roles in the community, expressing their fear and confusion. Rispens’ virginal all-white dress and shoes suggest the young innocents and Károlyi’s trench coat suggests the adults. Both singers were vocally and dramatically splendid.”

“Soprano Esther-Elisabeth Rispens spoke confidently with in some places very extreme vocal effects.”
