notes

Nancy Yuen is most well known for her potrayal of Puccini heroines like Liu and Butterfly, but in this debut collection with the Siam Philharmonic Orchestra under Somtow Sucharitkul, she really shows the depth of her talent, beginning with a stunning interpretation of Strauss's FOUR LAST SONGS. The album includes bits of both Liu and Butterfly, traditional Chinese songs, two arias from Somtow's MAE NAAK, a role which she created with the Bangkok Opera, and arias by Mozart and Verdi.

    author: Julian Chan

    Nancy's rendition of the songs and ariars was superb. Her exhilarating voice add a new dimension to the excellent pieces in the CD, particularly to the traditional Chinese song. This CD is a must for lovers of Western and Chinese music.

  • Sensational work form Nancy, Enjoyable to listen it again and again
    author: Mrs. L. LeMaistre

    Every single song is unique: relaxing & make me work better. I work in a Art retails shop. I was getting a lot of good comments from my customers. They all want to find out where they can get hold a copy of this CD.

  • author: Tamara Turner, CD Baby

    By far, the highlight of this album is the crystalline purity and supple, full-spectrum color of Yuen's voice, unobscured by her tasteful use of vibrato. Shining like a beacon through the beautifully-woven orchestrations of these opera masterpieces, her liquid, soprano voice gently tugs the listener through the enchanted worlds of Mozart, Verdi, Puccini and Chinese folk songs.
