About
Witness the recital debut of opera and concert singer Rihab Chaieb on Carnegie Hall’s most intimate stage. “Chaieb has the kind of warm and supple voice which is immediately beguiling … soaring effortlessly,” The New York Times said of her performance as Nefertiti in the Met Opera production of Akhnaten. The Financial Times praises another of Chaieb’s lead roles: “a Carmen who manages to be playful and daredevil at the same time … For a complete portrayal that radiates charisma, it would be hard to do better than this.” Tonight, she performs a wide-ranging program of works that span ancient times to the present, reflecting a vast range of musical and cultural interests, including her own Tunisian and French Canadian heritage.
