"...startlingly gifted soprano..."
PopMatters.com "The mercurial Stephanie Lamprea... split the sentences into raw sounds - voice crack acrobatics abounded throughout."
I CARE IF YOU LISTEN "Lamprea was captivating... conjuring a wide spectrum of sounds... she hummed, clapped, and sang operatically, showing off her pure tone and her ability to pluck any pitch out of the air. Her dedication to every gesture was total."
ClevelandClassical.com "Lamprea sings so expressively and slowly with ever louder and higher-pitched voice, that the inclined listener [has] shivers down their back and tension flows into the last row."
Halberstadt.de "Stephanie Lamprea, a Colombian-American soprano, demonstrates her iconoclasm and fearless commitment to new sounds right out of the gate... an impressive display of extended vocal techniques, in the honorable tradition of such forward-looking artists as Bethany Beardslee, Cathy Berberian, and Joan La Barbara."

New Album Out Now!
Stephanie Lamprea releases her debut album, Quaking Aspen - a collection of new music for solo voice and voice plus electronics. This record sets poetry and sounds of the natural world to unaccompanied voice, with words written by female poets from the 19th through 21st centuries. Placing text at the forefront, each poem is first spoken, and then sung to mesmerizing and distinctive musical interpretations. The record begins with Jason Eckardt’s Populus tremuloides: "Quaking Aspen", a wordless vocal soundscape using an array of timbres and extended techniques to represent the living form and motion of the Catskill Mountains’ quaking aspen. Moving through music of Wang Lu, Kurt Rohde, James May, George Gianopoulos, and Hannah Selin, through the words of Lucy Corin, Hilda Doolittle (H.D.), Donna Masini, and Edith Wharton, the listener is met with vibrant and vulnerable interpretations of text, soaring vocalises, and mercurial acrobatics abound. |
