„Kateryna Kasper’s performance was primarily characterized by the exceptionally rich overtone color of her rounded soprano, which resonated powerfully in the important middle range of her voice. Her part spanned down to the mezzo-soprano register, and she effortlessly navigated jumps over two octaves. She imbued her role with the art of long, flowing cantilena, which conveyed deep warmth. The ‘dialogue’ between Kasper and the oboe, flute, and bassoon in Et incarnatus was especially impressive, as she dazzled with brilliant coloratura up to c3, celebrating the virgin birth in an ecstatic cadenza.”
 

  • DAS OPERNMAGAZIN, Dr. Daniel Floyd – 2024.08.08

„The outstanding soprano Kateryna Kasper […] impressed with the dark timbre of her voice, which emphasised the dramatic and devotional aspects of her solos in the Kyrie and Et incarnatus est.“
