Client Experiences
"I have always known Mandy Brown to be an avid recitalist and deeply passionate about exploring and discovering new repertoire. When I learned she was offering her knowledge and skill as a service, I was thrilled. I'm a professional opera singer who has performed internationally and has studied and performed art song in undergraduate and graduate studies, as well as while a fellowship recipient at the Tanglewood Music Center, where I acquired knowledge of art song and style with vocal coaches and repetiteurs. Even with my own significant professional and educational experience, Mandy surprises me with composers and repertoire from a variety of periods I've not yet discovered.
Recently, I had the privilege of planning a short recital I would sing for a friend's wedding. My needs were specific (German & French, secular, themed around young or new love), and within hours she had 9 selections by 8 different composers, with 6 of the pieces and composers I had never heard of before. The selections showcased a wonderful variety of tempo and color that brought clarity and specificity to the exact set of songs I ultimately wanted to perform. If you need to curate a recital performance, whether it is your first time programming, or there are unique repertoire requirements, or better yet, you need inspiration in finding a theme or are in a time crunch, I emphatically and enthusiastically recommend working with Mandy Brown. It will be a delightful and enlightening experience! "
