ARIADNE GREIF, praised for her "luminous, expressive voice" (NYTimes), her "elastic and round high notes" (classiqueinfo), and her "mesmerizing stage presence" (East Anglian Daily Times), began her opera career as a ‘boy’ soprano in the Los Angeles area and at the LA Opera, eventually making an adult debut singing Lutoslawski’s Chantefleurs et Chantefables with the American Symphony Orchestra. She starred in roles ranging from Therese/Tirésias in Poulenc’s Les Mamelles de Tirésias, singing a “thoroughly commanding and effortless” run at the Aldeburgh Festival, a "sassy" Adina in The Elixir of Love with the Orlando Philharmonic, to Sappho in Atthis by Georg Friedrich Haas, for which the New York Times noted her “searing top notes,” and “dusky depths,” calling it “a solo high-wire act for Ms. Greif,” “a vehicle for Ms. Greif’s raw, no-holds-barred performance,” “one of the most searingly painful and revealing operatic performances in recent times.”

QUOTES

"... [Atthis] became a vehicle for Ms. Greif’s raw, no-holds-barred performance…” 

“…a beautiful and physically fearless young singer ..." 


“…Fragile but focused, with searing top notes and dusky depths…” 

"ultimately, this was a solo high-wire act for Ms. Greif…” 

“…one of the most searingly painful and revealing operatic performances in recent times.” 

--Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim, The New York Times (in two articles). Atthis with Opera Cabal.

 

"And the singing deserved the audience’s full attention. Ariadne Greif, as haughty Adina, has tonally pleasing high notes and a delightful sparkling quality to both her singing and acting.” 

--Matthew J. Palm, The Orlando Sentinel. Elixir of Love with The Orlando Philharmonic.

 

"Opposite these men was Ariadne Greif as the sassy Adina. Greif's voice soars and trills though arias. She tells the story through all of her body language. In fact all of the lead performers fit their roles well."

--Kimberly Moy, Broadway World. Elixir of Love with The Orlando Philharmonic.

"The visual setting focuses mainly on the vocally-assured, visually-magnetic Greif, whose blood-red lips feel particularly sardonic as she moves slowly, dressed in plain pajamas, through the colorless, whitish-gray warehouse setting, past objects such as a chandelier lying on its side.."

--David Patrick Stearns, The Philadelphia Inquirer. We Need to Talk, by Caroline Shaw with Opera Philadelphia.
 

"...Two very talented American-born singers took the bull by the horns - soprano Ariadne Greif and baritone Matthew [Morris]. They excelled (and looked very comfortable) in their respective roles. 

Greif radiated a rich and warm soprano voice, strong and accurate, while her stage presence was mesmerising to say the least. She put in a thoroughly commanding and effortless performance that thrilled a packed house while [Morris] equally matched her vocal skills and stage prowess in every conceivable way. They made a good double act..." 

"The scene in which Thérèse takes on the masculine role of Tirésias was marvellously entertaining and highlighted Greif as a born actress too." 


--Tony Cooper, East Anglian Daily Times. Les Mamelles de Tirésias with Aldeburgh Music.



"Ariadne Greif made a splendidly projected and vocally imposing Therese." 

--Peter Dickinson, Musical Opinion. Les Mamelles de Tirésias with Aldeburgh Music.



"Greif has a voice of crystalline clarity and incision and a sparkling stage personality."

--Gareth Jones, Coastal Scene. Les Mamelles de Tirésias with Aldeburgh Music.



"In equal measures intelligent, playful, ambitious and moving, the [festival] program, performed by three gifted sopranos, illuminated the shape-shifting power of the human voice. 

The most dramatic and seductive demonstration of this was the performance by Ariadne Greif, who possesses a luminous, expressive voice and an uncanny ability to imitate bird song. In George Crumb’s deeply affecting “Apparition,” bird calls and other wordless vocalizations link a song cycle on the subject of living and dying. With Jason Wirth spinning a gossamer web of unusual sounds on the piano, Ms. Greif was able to sing with a quiet intensity that approached prayerful ecstasy.

Before performing her own “Three Beloved, Old Songs, in a New Way” for soprano, toys and electronics, Ms. Greif enlisted the audience in a re-enactment of selected instructions from Yoko Ono’s “Grapefruit” (1964), including a reminder to breathe, instructions for folding a paper crane and a game of passing a whispered message from ear to ear. While listeners turned sheets of paper into odd approximations of winged creatures, she created hauntingly beautiful pieces with the help of a loop pedal, layering sighs, tongue clicks and whistled bird calls underneath melodies by Machaut, Monteverdi and Jean Baptiste de Bousset.

Her set ended with the charming “Two Selections From ‘Calligrammes,’ ” chansonlike settings of Apollinaire texts by Albert Behar, who accompanied Ms. Greif on accordion."


--Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim, New York Times. Recital at Resonant Bodies Festival.
 


"An artist known for her fearless performances of raw emotionality." 

--Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim, New York Times. "International Street Cannibals, Feasting on Schoenberg."


”As his long suffering show girl fiancée, Miss Adelaide, Ariadne Greif is a joy. She is a ditzy pleasure throughout and nails the classic “Adelaide’s Lament,” commonly known as “ A Person Could Develop a Cold.” Though the romance of Sky and Sarah drives the show, the relationship of Nathan and Adelaide provides the fun.”

--Bob Goepfert, WAMC Northeast Public Radio Midday Magazine. "A terrific “Guys and Dolls” at Opera Saratoga is fresh and fun."

“Greif was especially terrific with her New York City drawl. Her Hot Box number with her four showgirls, who were dressed in orange plumes, tons of sequins and a lot of bare skin was fabulous. Opera singers rarely get to dress down but these ladies seemed comfortable in a flashy but demure way.”

--Geraldine Freedman, The Daily Gazette. "Review: Opera Saratoga's "Guys and Dolls" is a smash hit."



"Ariadne Greif began her set with the darkly dazzling Apparition: Eight Elegiac Songs and Vocalises by George Crumb. Perfectly at home in its brooding world, Greif was riveting. Each line seemed to come from the bottom of her; she seemed to taste the ash of each bitter word. She felt its silences too, never letting a lull sap the crackling tension of her presence, while Jason Wirth teased a black aura from the amplified piano. She followed Crumb with a trio of “Beloved, Old Songs,” by Machaut, Monteverdi, and Bousset. These were presented in highly personal loop-pedal reinventions, in which wails become ground basses, gasps become grooves, and wineglasses and birds serenade the serenader. It’s a new direction for her that I hope she continues to explore." 

--Elliott Cole, Sequenza 21/. Recital at Resonant Bodies Festival.

 

"Greif’s piece is not precisely a composition, but I was captivated by its cleverness and the agile-voiced beauty of her performance. "

--Susan Scheid, Prufrock's Dilemma. Recital at Resonant Bodies Festival.
 



"A familiar face — and voice — to Orlando music fans helped close out the inaugural season of Alterity.co, Central Florida’s champion of contemporary composers.

Soprano Ariadne Greif, who has performed in the Orlando Philharmonic’s “Elixir of Love” and its “Women in Song” series, joined the Alterity Chamber Orchestra on Thursday night for a concert titled “Abandon Waiting.”

...Greif lent her exciting voice to Christopher Cerrone’s “The Pieces That Fall to Earth,” based on poetry by Kay Ryan. “This piece asks a singer to do everything she can do,” said the Brooklyn-based composer, who attended the concert. And indeed it did.

Greif was an outstanding choice for this musing on women’s thoughts, not only because of her vocal acrobatics but because of her flair for the dramatic. She doesn’t just sing, she performs.

“Should there be more? Should there be more?” she cried in the strong opening, laced with percussive bells, chimes, vibraphone and other mallet instruments. Later her voice rose to a commanding shriek, nimbly made shocking jumps and sank to a whisper, an effect that comes right to the edge of being a little too much." 

--Matthew J. Palm, Orlando Sentinel. Abandon Waiting with the Alterity Chamber Orchestra, 2018.

 

 

"Celebrated New York soprano Ariadne Greif is no stranger to Orlando stages or audiences of any stripe. In the last two years, Greif has performed with the Orlando Philharmonic in the operas The Magic Flute and Elixir of Love, as well as an incandescent solo turn as part of the Women in Song series at the Plaza Live.

On Thursday, the adventurous singer returns with a similarly fearless group of comrades: the 17-piece Alterity Chamber Orchestra. Grief will sing with Alterity on a performance of Christopher Cerrone's The Pieces That Fell to Earth, as part of the "Abandon Waiting" program of works by contemporary composers. The pairing of Greif and Alterity is a natural one: Both push at the boundaries of their respective crafts. Greif is a restless and prolific artist, continually innovating and transforming. Early exposure to the work of Diamanda Galas – "The first moment when I realized that you can take singing a lot farther than where it is now" – has led to a career seemingly dedicated to redefining the role of the opera singer into that of a modern interdisciplinary artist.

Greif is as comfortable with traditional works as she is performing pieces by sound-poet Kurt Schwitters, wrapping herself in duct tape for her part in Opera Cabal's Atthis or participating in the drag opera Chimera. Her schedule is a whirlwind. Later this year Greif will perform in her first Pierrot Lunaire, play the Resonant Bodies Festival in Australia, and perform a microtonal piece by David Gordon at the MATA Festival, among myriad other engagements. Orlando Weekly did our best to keep up with this singular artist..."

"Enfin, Ariadne Greif, qui faisait son début à Carnegie Hall en mai, finissait d'ajouter une touche fantastique à un tableau déjà plus que convaincant. Spectre noir aux yeux relevés de fuchsia, elle flottait sur scène, tantôt sœur, séductrice ou goule alors que ses aigus élastiques et ronds remplissaient le Florence Gould Hall." 

"Last, Ariadne Greif, who made her debut at Carnegie Hall in May, added a fantastical touch to an already more than convincing tableau. Black specter with eyes outlined in fuchsia, she floated on stage, now sister, now seductress, now ghoul, while her elastic and round high notes filled Florence Gould Hall." 


--Thomas Deneuville, Classique Info. La chute de la Maison Usher with the Opéra Français de New York.


"...young and attractive..." 

--Anthony Tommasini, New York Times. La chute de la Maison Usher with the Opéra Français de New York.



"Greif, who sang an avant-garde piece by Georges Aperghis winningly, looks to be a boon for new music." 

--Mark Swed, Los Angeles Times. Aperghis Récitations pour voix seule at the 2011 Ojai Music Festival.



"Soprano Ariadne Greif, who served as the voice of Saint Catherine, displayed an impressive level of engagement, moving effectively between sung and spoken portions of the text while remaining firmly engaged in the drama itself." 

--Joel Schwindt, The Boston Musical Intelligencer. Matti Kovler's mini-mono-opera La Testa di Santa Caterina in Jordan Hall.

 

"...Ariadne Greif estampó su impronta personal en el multifacético grupo del poeta elegido por Britten. En vez de orquesta, la versión pianística exhibió complejidades que de otro modo quedan ocultas en la textura orquestal, una partitura ardua y laberíntica espléndidamente vertida por Marina Radiushina que rivalizó en calidad con la soprano. Aquella frase que se repite y que pinta el ciclo como ninguna – “Sólo yo tengo la llave de este desfile salvaje” – sirvieron a Greif como puntales de su personalísima interpretación de un ciclo a menudo cantado por voces masculinas y que adquiere inusitados matices a cargo de sopranos.

...Para los dúos Bei Männer y Pa-pa-pa-pa de La flauta mágica se le unió Greif en deliciosa intervención."

"Ariadne Greif stamped her own personal imprint on the multifaceted group of poems from the poet [Rimbaud] selected by Britten [Les Illuminations]. In the place of an orchestra, the piano version of the score exhibited complexities that in another mode would behidden in the orchestral texture, a difficult and labyrinthine score splendidly rendered by Marina Radiushina, who rivaled the soprano in quality. One phrase that repeats itself and that paints the cycle better than any other--"Only I hold the key to this savage parade"--served Greif like a prop for her extremely personal interpretation of a cycle frequently sung by male voices and that acquires unusual nuances in the charge of sopranos.

...For the duets "Bei Männern" and "Pa-pa-pa," Greif joined [baritone John Moore and pianist Marina Radiushina] in a delicious intervention."

--Sebastian Spreng, Miami Clasica. "'Amor y Joventud,' Talento Joven para Mainly Mozart". Britten's Les Illuminations and Mozart duets in recital with John Moore and Marina Radiushina, 2017.

 

"Weinberg’s writing fits Greif like a glove. Saturday saw an incredibly vulnerable, powerful performance from Greif, whipping from glassy-eyed and blissed-out to muttering and paranoid to somber to screaming."

"The production stood on the strong base of Miller’s direction, Eichten’s sensitivity, and Greif’s flexibility as singer and actor, bringing the visceral grounding needed to realize the nuances of Barizo’s text and the ever-shifting colors of Weinberg’s setting.”

--Tamzin Elliott, San Francisco Classical Voice. Alyssa Weinberg’s Isola at Long Beach opera, 2024.

“Greif’s strong, clear voice resonates and modulates with the often discordant and erratic string and electronic music (the latter by David Saldana), at one point commandingly reaching a high-pitched crescendo of crisis.”

Anita W. Harris. LA Theatrix. Alyssa Weinberg’s Isola at Long Beach Opera, 2024.

“Ariadne Greif is a beautiful singer and actress, and she and Eichten were brave to wade through, lie in the water and sand, and perform nude or semi-nude.”

—Jeff Slayton, LA Dance Chronicle. Alyssa Weinberg’s Isola at Long Beach Opera, 2024.

"La voix de la soprano Ariadne Greif a enchanté les passants..."

"...cette année, il a convié une soprano, l'Américaine Ariadne Greif.

Peu après 19 h 30, la voix gracieuse de la chanteuse d'opéra inonde le quartier et certains galeristes abandonnent même leurs visiteurs quelques instants pour profiter de ces voluptueuses mélodies."

--Sacha Rosset, Ouest-France. Strauss and Debussy songs at On Zoute in Dinard, France, 2017.

 

"Quand la voix lumineuse d'Ariadne Greif a empli la nef, l'ambiance a viré à la magie."

--Le Telegramme. "Festival Daniou. Un concert enchanteur". Shepherd on the Rock in Plouër-sur-Rance, France, 2017.

“Forward into the breach stepped soprano Ariadne Greif, who delivered a magnificent performance of the new work she learned while journeying to deliver it. Capturing the elements of the drama in both the narrated and sung portions of the work, at times humorous, elsewhere haunting, she held a presence that united and gave life to the two visionary women of O’Malley and Hutchinson, accompanied by the bold and dashing music provided by the quartet.”

—Stephen Martorella, Boston Music Intelligencer. “PUBLIQuartet Premieres Newport Commission.” Same day jump-in for a premiere of a new piece by Clarice Assad at Newport Classical.

 

"Soprano Ariadne Greif followed this with the evening’s most compelling vocal performance in “From Sleepless Nights;” despite being an oddly-placed emotional beat, the piece for soprano and cello was a sophisticated showcase of intervallic vocal control. Grief’s mid-range gravity convinced the audience that “this is what I have decided to do with my life,” and Caleigh Drane on cello wove in and out of solo and support, mixing Baroque ornaments with modern dexterity as she played legato and pizzicato simultaneously."

--Lana Norris, I CARE IF YOU LISTEN. From Sleepless Nights on a Daniel Felsenfeld retrospective with the Nouveau Classical Project.

 

"Greif steals the show each time she shows up on this CD. She is simply sensational."

"Soprano Ariadne Greif makes a sultry appearance in a superb arrangement by Jonathan Keren of the famous bossa nova song, “Desafinado” (which means slightly out of tune, but no one here is ever, thankfully, out of tune!)"

--Arts Fuse. Susan Miron. CD Review for SHUFFLE Concert's new album.
 


"The performance concluded with the arrival of the soprano Ariadne Greif and two other musicians from the Knights, one playing a French horn. Taking up the poem with rival vivacity, Ms. Greif engaged Mr. Kentridge in an electrifying duet. More polished than any vintage Dada performance, and richer in freely accessible humor, Mr. Kentridge’s “Ursonate” nonetheless paid homage to its predecessors by demonstrating how helpful the language of absurdism can still be in addressing a world that makes no sense."

--NYTimes. Nancy Princenthal. Ursonate with William Kentridge, 2017.

"Back to William Kentridge. Just as he started sounding like just another boomer on a stage droning on about something you don’t understand, a woman in the audience got up and fiercely started shouting his words back at him. This was Ariadne Greif, a New York soprano who has gained glowing reviews in America for her roles in Baroque and contemporary works.

As she got on stage for a dialogue with Kentridge, so did a violinist and - why not - a tap dancer. The final 10 minutes were a pure spectacle to look at and listen to. The disruption was a comment on the spartanic way with which Schwitters treats his audience - and provided just the touch of diversity the evening needed. As an absurdist amuse, it boded well for the festival.

--Luxembourg Times. Douwe Miedema. Ursonate with William Kentridge, 2021.


"The chorus/Jesus made its grand entrance with a startling call to John, who just as powerfully responded through soprano Ariadne Greif…Ariadne Greif, who first of all needs to be commended for bravely stepping in with a just a few days' notice, did not let anything like a very brief preparation time stop her from giving a fiercely committed performance, her supple and assertive voice ferociously rising above the chorus or harmoniously blending in. I thought she particularly distinguished herself in the mesmerizing aria "I Didn't Suffer", which had the immediately infectious power of a brilliant pop song while still projecting the haunting nature of unexplained divinity. " 

--Classical Music Rocks. A Gnostic Passion by Brad and Doug Balliett with Cantori New York.
 

"Ariadne Greif’s lush, powerful voice gorgeously illuminated the unabashedly poetic evocations of some of nature's many wonders while Jason Wirth readily provided understated but pitch-perfect accompaniment...The performance, which was essentially a profound meditation on life and death, was compelling for its unusual sounds, such as piano chord plucking and bird-like singing, and no less unusual arrangements, like silence being used in a most effective way. The effortless chemistry between Ariadne Greif's exquisitely expressive singing and Jason Wirth's endlessly adaptable playing vastly contributed to making the complex work organically flow and slowly turn into a fascinating experience." 

"From the ground-breaking Second Viennese School to endearing Broadway silliness, there is clearly nothing they cannot handle."

--Classical Music Rocks. Recital with Jason Wirth: Berg Sieben Frühe Lieder, Crumb Apparition, Sorabji Movement, Du Yun's "I must survive."



"Soprano Greif, praised by the New York Times for her “luminous, expressive voice,” drew on a wide range of emotions to brilliantly capture the bothersome mother and the not-too menacing witch."

--Penny Schwartz, The Times of Israel. Matti Kovler's Ami & Tami. 

 

"If this concert had one other star is was soprano Ariadne Greif. The vocal works here were more suitable constellations around Mr. Schoenberg. But the selections were, with few exceptions echt-Romantic, music which was pulling at the yokes of the diatonic scale, sometimes breaking through, but always retaining its passion."

"And she was the soprano to essay each one. Coming near to the hysteria of the poems, but always, always keeping hold of her stunning voice."

"Ms. Greif was not afraid to pull out the Romantic steps from Mr. Korngold, a Schoenberg student whose own genius was in opera and film. Nor did she hold back in the first version of Alban Berg’s Close Both My Eyes."

"Even the songs of Webern became dramatically intense, as sung by Mr. Greif, with pianist Conor Hanick. One thought of dodecaphonic tone-rows as bagatelles, little jewels which were held up somehow on their delicate strings."

"The last two movements were highlighted again by Ms. Greif. Her voice here was not ethereal. It was searing, throaty and sometimes with striking emotion.

Whatever the title “Air Schoenberg” might have meant, she helped it soar on wings of song, while the others of International Street Cannibals brought the mesmerized audience the extremes of fire, ice and frequently even warmth."

--Harry Rolnick, ConcertoNet. Schoenberg String Quartet II and various Second Viennese School songs with the International Street Cannibals, 2017.

 

"As voluptuously sung by Greif, this colorful nightingale flew high on Late Romantic tradition..."

"And then all hell – or at least tonality – broke lose during the last two movements, during which Greif brought her blazingly expressive singing to the two heart-wrenching poems anchoring them. Bold and insightful, the performance strongly emphasized the intrinsic beauty and the emotional resonance of the game-changing quartet."

"The last work on the program was Franz Schubert's animated song "Erlkönig". Based on a famous poem by Goethe, which was itself inspired by a Scandinavian folktale, this four-minute ballad shows an inordinate sense of drama and impressive compositional sophistication from the 18-year-old youngster that Schubert was at the time. The sharply defined four characters gave Greif a priceless opportunity to display her remarkable gift for spellbinding narrative and on-the-spot shifts in rhythmical nuances."

--Classical Music Rocks. Schoenberg String Quartet II and various Second Viennese School songs with the International Street Cannibals, 2017.

 

"Soprano Ariadne Greif played THREE, dressed as a maid but acting like a housekeeper with a decidedly rebellious streak. Also presented with a rangy role, Greif sang quite beautifully, particularly in ensemble passages, where she blended seamlessly with her colleagues."

--Christian Carey, Musical America. "A New Gertrude Stein Opera: Chutzpah Rules." Six. Twenty. Outrageous. by Daniel Thomas Davis, directed and designed by Doug Fitch, with American Opera Projects, 2018.

 

”Their maid, Three, was the very funny Ariadne Greif, whose soprano voice rang intensely in the small space." 

--Anne E. Johnson, Classical Voice America. "Unparsable Lines + Beautiful Music = 6. 20. Outrageous." Six. Twenty. Outrageous. by Daniel Thomas Davis, directed and designed by Doug Fitch, with American Opera Projects, 2018.

 

"...And the dusting, dancing, most physical maidservant, Ariadne Greif exaggerating, electrically going up to the top of the soprano range..."

--Harry Rolnick, ConcertoNet. Six. Twenty. Outrageous. by Daniel Thomas Davis, directed and designed by Doug Fitch, with American Opera Projects, 2018.

"…soaring operatic voice…Ariadne’s spectacular finale was a spine chilling rendition of Schubert’s Erlkonig and the highlight of the evening..."

--Mark Pigott, Sydney Arts Guide. Staged concert for Resonant Bodies Australia and Sydney Chamber Opera at Carriageworks in Sydney, 2018.

“Guest soprano Ariadne Greif made quite an entrance in a fluffy pink tutu costume for John Harbison’s Mirabai Songs. She really delivered in this music: engaging, committed, and fearless. Her voice had a wonderful mellow middle register as well as expressive high notes….the third song [Kliphuis}, the boldly theatrical “Rat in my room,” was a true highlight of the night (maybe of the year), with Greif and the ensemble absolutely rocking out. It’s got to be one of the most exciting contemporary art songs out there.”

--Brendan Fox, Milwaukee Shepherd Express. Harbison and Kliphuis with Present Music Milwaukee, 2023.

"…her voice is captivating..."

--Judith Malafronte, Opera News. Nerone in L’incoronazione di Poppea with Bare Opera, 2018.

"…Griffin’s chamber arrangement for Momenta, plus an additional viola and harp, provided an intimacy over which Ariadne Greif’s clear soprano could soar…"

--Alyssa Kayser-Hirsh, I Care if You Listen. Liebestod with Momenta Quartet, 2018.

"From the composer’s Five Lieder, soprano Ariadne Greif performed ‘Ich wandle unter Blume’ and ‘Laue Sommernacht’ with a perceptive magnetism, framing the delicate balance of complex harmonies and distinct melodies that make Schindler-Mahler’s works so gripping. Greif’s bold yet smooth voice entered and blossomed glowingly, as if emerging directly from the composer’s miniature worlds of storytelling genius."

--Daniele Sahr, Seen and Heard International: “In New York, a Perceptive Trio Explores Schoenberg’s Influence”. Dichterliebe, Alma Mahler, and Early Alban Berg with Conor Hanick, Anna Tsukervanik, and the International Street Cannibals.

"...voraciously versatile and monstrously talented..."

"Ryan, as is evident in the vocal writing in this most recent of their collaborations, has become familiar with the elasticity and ample technical capabilities of Ariadne’s voice. He captures the bizarre nature of the text of the Jabberwocky with deft precision, sharp wit, and staggering intricacy largely through the breadth of unusual vocal effects for which he calls throughout the score. These effects include stuttering consonants, long slides, rapid-fire glottal stops, speaking, gurgling, lip and tongue trills, and even a choking sound. Needless to say, these are far beyond typical vocal techniques that are required in standard repertoire, but Ariadne has risen to the challenge that the composer laid out specifically for her. She navigates this complex score not only with ease, but also an unbridled enthusiasm and a taste for the dramatic."


--David Bloom, Contemporaneous Blog. Ryan Chase's Jabberwocky. 
 


"The program also included a Monteverdi setting of Psalm 150, which Ariadne Greif sang energetically if perhaps with slightly more power than the circumstances (a small ensemble and a small hall) required." 

--Allan Kozinn, New York Times. Monteverdi's Psalm 150 sung at age 16. Bwahahaha!
