Brandes recital ranges from 18th century to now
International audiences have long appreciated the artistry of soprano Christine Brandes, but it’s the Bay Area’s particular privilege to have her living among us. Brandes’ crystalline tone, technical agility and expressive clarity have enlivened a host of performances, particularly in music of the 18th century. [...] she’ll also perform new works by Bay Area stalwarts Eric Moe and Richard Festinger along with songs by Brahms and Ravel.
