Jennifer Larmore
Jennifer Larmore is an outstanding American
mezzo-soprano who has parlayed operatic success
in Europe into international stardom. Known
for excelling in the coloratura roles of the
Baroque and bel canto, she has also
moved into the Romantic and Contemporary repertoire.
The Chicago Sun Times has praised Larmore
as "a fearless singer with a voice of astonishing
flexibility, range and color."
Apollo's Fire
Taking its name from the classical
god of music and the sun, Apollo’s Fire
is dedicated to the performance of 17th- and
18th-century music on the period instruments
for which it was written. The ensemble unites
a select pool of early-music specialists from
throughout North America and Europe, and has
been praised internationally for stylistic freshness
and buoyancy, technical excellence, and creative
programming.
