Album Summary
Performer
Jane Rhodes (Mezzo Soprano)
Notes & Reviews:
No other composer depicted the typical French effervescence and easy-going Parisian lifestyle so accurately, coupled with biting satire of the powers-that-be, as Jacques Offenbach. This album offers a cross-section of music from five of his successful operettas in a thoroughly authentic and spirited interpretation by French mezzo Jane Rhodes.
