Enrico Lagasca "Just What Was Needed" as Jesus in Arvo Pärt's Passio

Reviewing the performance with the Experiential Orchestra under Music Director James Blachly, ClassicsToday.com said "Jesus, standing aside from the throng, was sung by Enrico Lagasca, whose smooth, dark bass voice was atmosphere in itself. At Blachly’s tempos, Lagasca amazed with his breath control, particularly given Pärt’s long lines, many of which end on a lift of a third sung pianissimo. And his way with the text was just what was needed for this holy part."
