Rachel Ann Morgan – International Reviews

“Sweet indeed: Rachel Ann Morgan sings both simply and beautifully, and plays the harp (on this occasion a splendidly resonant Celtic one) in similar fashion. The result is a very great pleasure for the ear.”
GRAMOPHONE (UK)

“One is immediately struck by the true line of Miss Morgan’s singing and her beautifully clear diction. Anyone who enjoys folk music with a touch of refinement will enjoy this program.”
AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE (USA)

“Morgan is not only a harpist of quality. She has a magnificent mezzo-soprano voice with a golden and alluring timbre, which she uses with emotion, expression and feeling.”
REPERTOIRE (FRANCE)

“That a simple melody and text, when well performed, can touch the soul was proved by the mezzo-soprano Rachel Ann Morgan. In a church filled to the brim she held us under her spell with songs from Wales, Ireland, France, etc..”
PZC (NL)

“Rachel Ann Morgan suggests a world of apparent simplicity, sung in a subdued voice with a warm and sweet mezzo timbre, creating an atmosphere of nostalgia and serenity.”

OPREGTE STEENWIJKER COURANT (NL)

“Morgan has a velvety flexible voice which evokes a thousand and one different moods…. Morgan ‘is’ music.”
LEIDS DAGBLAD (NL)
