The luminous beauty
of this rising star's soprano voice and impeccable coloratura technique
have evoked enthusiastic comparisons with the great sopranos of an
earlier day, while her thoroughly modern approach to the operatic
tradition has won her international acclaim. A "major vocal find,"
according to the Chicago Tribune,
Schäfer includes among her numerous honors 1997 Gramophone awards
for Best Solo Vocal Recording and for Video of the Year for her performance
in the title role of the Glyndebourne Festival Opera's production
of Lulu.
She makes her Bay Area recital debut at Cal Performances.
