News | Yannick-Muriel Noah, Arthur Espiritu
"She has a voice roughly the size of the Pacific Ocean, and an even bigger talent. Her instrument is dark, rich, and ultra-concentrated, and she delivered with all-or-nothing intensity."
The Vancouver Sun
"(...) she has the build and voice of a "great", who can afford everything: the delicacy of the treble, the flexibility of the vibrato, the power of the notes held and the smile of an artist for whom singing is like second nature."
