"Sublime!" (The Straits Times) - What an incredible performance by Andreas Scholl and Sarah Traubel with the amazing Red Dot Baroque at Singapore's Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay!

Andreas Scholl's "recognisable head voice radiant as fondly remembered. In this impassioned plea from Mary for compassion at the cross of Jesus, his delivery enthralled with nimbleness, athleticism and heartfelt sincerity" (The Straits Times) And Sarah Traubel's "perfect diction and intonation, allied with expressive power, made this aria describing a whirlwind of emotions memorable" (The Straits Times).

A reading as sublime as this is the very reason the experience of live performances with great artists – greeted with a standing ovation that evening – will always trump the best of studio recordings.

Perfectly supported by Alan Choo's Red Dot Baroque, the two soloists also performed a Pergolesi Stabat Mater that nobody who attended will forget: “A reading as sublime as this is the very reason the experience of live performances with great artists – greeted with a standing ovation that evening – will always trump the best of studio recordings." (The Straits Times). Bravi tutti!
