Marina Rebeka, Sinfonieorchester St. Gallen & Michael Balke.”Elle” is Marina Rebeka’s new solo album, celebrating the diversity of the female roles in some of the greatest French Opera Arias of the canon.From a sweet recounting of the pleasures of love in Charpentier’s Louise, to the steely determination of Juliette in Gounod’s last scene, passing through the new-found piety of Thais, Carmen’s indomitably wild character, Chimene’s extreme sadness in Le Cid, and Marguerite’s transformation from an innocent girl in love into a woman longing for a man who will not return, these and the many more arias that fill this recording explore the emotional spectrum of the female roles in French Opera.Elle is a studio recording featuring the Sinfonieorchester St. Gallen (Switzerland) conducted by Michael Balke, marking Marina Rebeka’s fourth solo album.
