“Indeed, Fridman has a good understanding of the Verdian style and phraseology, using the text to find meaning and phrasing with generosity. The voice is interesting. She boasts a juicy chestiness, a rich and plush middle, with a top that vibrates freely, if tending to be slightly squally. Fridman sang her big scene at the horrid field with extrovert passion, and admirably kept her composure when faced with the aforementioned gimp-costumed, candelabra-carrying demon. Her ‘Morrò’ was also sung with genuine feeling. Fridman is undoubtedly a very individual artist who has much to offer.”
