Sherezade Panthaki Was "A Tour De Force" in New Jersey Symphony Messiah
Two reviews for the New Jersey Symphony highlighted soprano Sherezade Panthaki: "Panthaki was a tour de force as a performer, conveying the “angel” recitatives with a powerful sound and bell-like top register. The soprano signature aria of Messiah is “Rejoice greatly,” which Panthaki delivered with seemingly endless breath control and ornaments racing well above the notated staff. In addition, she displayed a particularly translucent sound with little vibrato when singing “How Beautiful Are the Feet of Them that Preach the Gospel of Peace,” an aria not always performed in Messiah productions." -- Princeton Town Topics.
"Panthaki sang with a perfectly poised mix of joy and urgency, and used effortless flexibility in her ornamentation." -- NJArts.net
