“…Emotive wordless vocalizing by baritone Peter Stewart and alto Kate Maroney dominates the haunting, scene-setting overture, their expressions heard amidst atmospheric crackle, Mizrahi’s staccato piano chords, and Budde’s clarinet.” —Textura CD Review, Missy Mazzoli: Song from the Uproar
“…the performance was enhanced by the lithe, lively singing of mezzo-soprano Kate Maroney as Pleisse. The young newcomer to the Bach series handled the sometimes florid parts like a veteran…” — Andrew L. Pincus, The Berkshire Eagle
“Mezzo-soprano Kate Maroney as the conversing river was appropriately mellifluous in tone and phrasing. Ms. Chan’s light voice and phrasing were perfect complements to Ms. Maroney’s shadowy vocal hue…” —Seth Lachterman, The Berkshire Review
“Reflections upon a September morn,” written in 2002 and employing excerpts from Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself,” from “Leaves of Grass,” is (James) Adler’s musical response to 9/11. Expressive mezzo-soprano Kate Maroney……performed the two songs that make up the “Reflections.” —Bruce-Michael Gelbert – [Q] onStage: New York’s Performances and Arts Reviews
“The performance is wonderful; Kate Maroney sings with fervor, Virginia Brewer and James Adler accompany brilliantly. The whole is recommended, a moving piece.” — Paul Turok, Turok’s Choice
