Helen Charlston’s performance as the Sorceress in Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas at Grange Park Opera has been reviewed by The Article.
Performed as a double bill with Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice, Dido and Aeneas, it was deemed a “treat of baroque opera”, and that “Helen Charlston [was] a firm Sorceress in the Dido, and the whole cast sang beautifully in the choral numbers.
Acclaimed for her musical interpretation, presence and “warmly distinctive tone” (The Telegraph), Helen Charlston has quickly cemented herself as a key performer in the next generation of British singers.
