Gabriela Scherer “a sensation as Senta” with the Luxembourg Philharmonic

Rave reviews for Gabriela Scherer’s Senta in Der fliegende Holländer with the Luxembourg Philharmonic under the baton of Tarmo Peltokoski! Described as “a sensation,” “one of the leading interpreters of this role,” and “a fresh, pristine soprano,” Gabriela received high praise across the board. Read the full quotes below:

“Gabriela Scherer as Senta was a sensation.”
Tageblatt

“Gabriela Scherer demonstrates this evening that she is currently one of the leading interpreters of this role, which she sings on many international opera stages. With a radiant, youthful-lyric soprano, she sings this difficult part, which is exhausting for any interpreter both because of its high notes and its excursions into the low register. Gabriela Scherer takes care not to force her voice. The forte attacks in Senta’s ballad are powerful yet controlled, never screamed. She also conveys the childlike and youthful character of Senta perfectly: ecstatic exultation is followed by romantic dreaminess, all sung with a fresh, unspoiled soprano.”
Klassik Begeistert

“His partner Gabriela Scherer as Senta was excellent. She is a singer who performed this role without shouting, revealing the finest nuances. The voice was very well focused and flowed effortlessly from one climax to the next. From the middle of the duet in the second act, she audibly showed consideration for Brian Mulligan, so that both voices still harmonized very well. Gabriela Scherer also gave a psychologically nuanced interpretation of a Senta who was convincing at every moment.”
