Friday Night on ‘A Little Night Music’ – Vintage Vocalists: Risë Stevens

Every Friday on “A Little Night Music” – Vintage Vocalists. Jean Stillwell of “Classical Mornings with Mike and Jean” joins Kathleen Kajioka to explore great voices of the past. This week, Risë Stevens.

This American mezzo lived for 99 years, but left the operatic stage at the height of her career in her 40s. Her many appearances on the Hollywood screen kept her a household name, and give modern audiences a chance to take in the fullness of her abilities, particularly in her signature role as “Carmen”.

Tune in just after 9 to hear this voluptuous voice!
