Gabriella's Voice

De: Michael J. Vaughn

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Fifty-year-old Bill Harness is on a strange but seemingly benign journey, rambling across the country in an old Pontiac and leaving large anonymous checks with promising young opera singers. His fuel, however, is sorrow, and it isn't until he arrives in Seattle and befriends Gabriella Compton, a phenomenally talented soprano, that he is able to address the three great tragedies of his vocally gifted family. An intensely musical tale from the award-winning author of The Popcorn Girl and Operaville. "The true gem of Gabriella's Voice is the fluid, eloquent, and incredibly knowledgeable writing style. It is apparent within moments that the author not only loves opera, but more specifically adores singers. One can feel a certain sense of musical propulsion, with cadences, climactic episodes, and stellar recapitulations. Vaughn is a tremendous writer." --Kirsten C. Kunkle, theoperacritic.com
