Daniel De Visé, SPIN, 13 Sep. 2022 Handel wanted the villain Polinesso to be a second castrato, but none was available, so a contralto created the part. Christian Hertzog, San Diego Union-Tribune, 15 Aug. 2022 Critics delighted in her rich, fluid contralto voice, which easily handled the complex embellishments demanded of Rossini heroines. New York Times, 13 May 2022 Odetta was the secret-agent contralto, amplifying a history of pain others were using for sing-alongs. Sasha Frere-jones, The New Yorker, 24 Feb. 2022 By all reports, her wide-ranging contralto possessed the kind of resonant halo that technology is helpless to reproduce. Alex Ross, The New Yorker, 19 Oct. 2021 The other excellent Iphigenias included Nivi Ravi, Joanna Lynn-Jacobs, Alexandra Smither and Sharmay Musacchio (though her impressive contralto was ill served by the bouncing vocal line of her Act II aria, made obvious by the sound design). Heidi Waleson, WSJ, 14 Dec. 2021 Singing soulfully but very quietly at first, her rich contralto builds in perfect sync with the stately tempo. Bill Adler, Smithsonian Magazine, 6 Dec. 2021 Marian Anderson’s wide-ranging contralto possessed the kind of resonant halo that technology is helpless to reproduce.
