"The young mezzo-soprano Aebh Kelly brings all her skills to the table, including flawless technique, great high notes and the ability to expand dramatically"

"Aebh Kelly sang Dido with a well-rounded mezzo-soprano voice.  Dido's aria was sung with heart wrenching beauty and expression, that left the audience in a state of breathless silence"
