Concert in Salzburg:
"Inevitably, I thought of the young Maria Callas,
when I heard this evening the graceful girl sing the extensive
Mozart Aria like a great singer, with a carrying, well trained
voice, a fine breathing technique and absolute sureness
in the coloratura parts. The high notes sparkled, feeling
was intensive. I was captivated by her artistic sense and
musicality."
Opera Evening at the Vienna Opera:
"Britt Bern is a hit. Clear as a bell in intonation
and sure in rhythm and interpretation. Her beautifully clear
soprano voice soared in tasteful coloraturas. Her acting
temperament and sense of comedy caused the public and the
evening to be hers."
Festival in Versailles, France:
"Britt Bern is a jewel. With her vocal brilliance,
including her coloratura, she gives evidence of a winged
singing standard. Her Interpretations, rich in nuances,
and her fantastic acting talent will lead her to greater
tasks." Zurich Opera, Switzerland:
Britt Bern as Norina in Don Pasquale - All the
coloratura passages are clean an perfect. All registers
are under control. One could only wish that the orchestra
would play with the same instrumental perfection."
Concert in San Francisco:
"Britt Bern's interpretation of Strauss' "Last
Four Songs" offered a shimmering moment. The second
half of the concert was a wonderful presentation of Jenny
Lind's art songs and folk songs that couldn't have been
sung any better by Miss Lind herself." MET
Metropolitan Opera Association, Lincoln Center, New
York, New York
"I first met Britt Bern at the Festival in Salzburg,
Austria, some years ago, and have been working with her,
off and on since then, most recently in New York. In the
course of her excellent career she has sung at many first
class places. Opera as well as concert and TV, to
the greatest acclaim of press and public. She is a thoroughly
professional, experienced artist, with a beautiful voice
and lots of personality - pretty, vivacious, and always
able to hold an audience's interest. She has sung many roles,
of great variety."Walter Taussig - Associate Conductor,
Metropolitan Opera
A Quote from Britt Bern
Opera is a wonderful art with many limitations
and growing pains. By extending my repertoire I am now reaching
a wider audience, and sharing my joy of singing with the
whole world [Britt
