Unbelievably beautiful sound comes out of this woman's body. She has mastered the word "artistry" with her vocal control, deep musical understanding, years of experience and a heaping dose of raw talent. She may well be America's finest mezzo of the last fifty years. CSUN's new performing arts center provided a lovely showcase for her voice. Ms. Graham's Scottish accompanist Malcolm Martineau demonstrated amazing musicality in this recital, which complemented her voice very well. The program was also impeccably chosen, a treat for even the snobbiest of the musical elite. Just reading the meaty program notes was an education! However, Ms. Graham is not a snob: she took great care to bring every member of the audience under her delightful spell with her dramatic acting and gorgeous singing. She is the perfect combination of singer and communicator, which just makes for excellent entertainment. It's worth the trip to Carnegie or Kennedy to catch this recital before her American tour ends.
