"Making
each of these women burn with the
intensity of a candle about to be
snuffed out. From the dark
Catherine of Aragon to the dramatic
Anne Boleyn, the bitterly ironic
Anne of Cleves to the pitifully
defiant Katherine Howard, Miller
turned moods on a dime. . .
. [Poulenc's] music, too, serves a
dramatic purpose—at least in
Miller’s hands—the soprano managed
to channel the spirit of [the poet]
Vilmorin herself.”
The Newark Star-Ledger
“Meagan Miller, also a soprano,
chose a tough nut in ‘Martern
aller Arten’ from Die Entführung’
and chose to do it her own way,
with moments of staccato
phrasing that proved her
agility, thrust and command of
intonation. Her voice is strong
and brilliant. It can be
forceful, as in the Mozart, or
touching, as in a number from
‘Susannah.’”
