TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS

"Soprano soloist Maeve Höglund's fresh voice was beguiling. She sings with effortless sound that has natural nobility about it."

Rick Walters, Shepherd Express

"Maeve Höglund's soprano was a pleasure throughout - easily flexible throughout her range, rich of tone and soaring over the ensemble."

Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review

"The central role of Lola is a big, complicated sing and soprano Maeve Höglund was triumphant. Ms. Höglund has a solid technique wedded to a rich, alluring soprano that can climb the heights with an easy sheen. She is called upon to execute extreme emotional states, and whether hurling out angular accusations, or musing introspectively , her responsive instrument was a joy to hear. It does not hurt that she is also pretty as a princess and utterly at ease in her stage demeanor."

James Sohre, Opera Today

"Maeve Höglund was incandescent as the proud and pure Leila... with clear-voiced delivery and relative ease to her vocal acrobatics. Her Leila was smart and true and fierce, defending herself, defending her love, and demonstrating a tenacity and nobility that the male characters lacked."

Libby Hanssen, KC Studio

"All Lucias are judged by their mad scene, but from the moment Höglund offered us her "Regnava nel silenzio" in the first act, we were promised good things to come... she has a seamless column of sound, and an instrument flexible enough to take on what is some of the most demanding coloratura singing in all of opera... Höglund's singing is compelling but so is her acting, which was more restrained, but as effective, as another great actress-singer and interpreter of the role, Anna Netrebko."

Whitney Fishburn, DC Metro Theater Arts

"Maeve Höglund was a charming, fiesty Susanna, and her stellar soprano brightened the ensembles. Her fine rendition of 'Deh vieni, non tardar' was equally impressive for its warmth and feeling."

Cornelia Iredell, Opera News

"Maeve Höglund, as Susanna, Figaro’s bride, offered a similarly nuanced performance, both on her own – her account of 'Deh vieni' was a delight – and in her ensemble interactions."

Allan Kozinn, Portland Press Herald
