San Francisco Performances Measha Brueggergosman, soprano

Measha Brueggergosman commands the attention of an audience — her voice is “an imposing force of nature” and “a merciless silver sword.” This vibrant Canadian soprano with a voluptuous voice brings the intimate program Night and Dreams (from her recording of the same name) to Herbst Theatre. Described by the artists herself as “languid, sexy, romantic, different,” Night and Dreams is an eclectic collection of diverse works infused with power and beauty. Of singing lieder, she says, “it’s a great experience, but it’s also a great responsibility.”
