| About La
voix humaine: |
| |
“Charlotte Riedijk,
who specializes in this role, does not miss a single expressive
detail.
From euphoria to desperation, she approaches everything
with vocal originality.”
La
Provincia (Cremona) 07/11/09 |
| |
“(…) and
on this canvas Charlotte Riedijk dances with exceptional theatrical
and vocal mastery.”
La Cronaca
07/11/09 |
| |
“(…) an
effective dramaturgy, strengthened by the vocal gifts of Charlotte
Riedijk.
Expressive, convincing (...) fully committed and with
much intensity”
La Provincia
(Como) 14/11/09 |
| |
“(…) the
laurel wreath for the best musical result is for ‘La voix
humaine’. Charlotte Riedijk sustains the momentum throughout
this solitary role. Each expression and inner movement revealed,
with large lyricism, with unquestionable technical and emotional
mastery, completely coherent and clear in text and psychological
paths.”

großer Sehnsucht : |

“That way, all
the attention is focused on soprano Charlotte Riedijk who (...)
takes on a completely new identity every ten minutes, in which
you believe unconditionally.”

“Most astonishing
(...) was soprano Charlotte Riedijk (...) she really wás
five different personalities in one single show. Fully and without
reserve she sang her romantic colourful songs, with now and
then some spoken fragments.”
Trouw

“The performance
of the songs is excellent. Soprano Charlotte Riedijk sings like
an angel and the members of the Osiris Trio accompany her with
great passion.”
Het Parool 24/4/07 |
| |
“Charlotte Riedijk
is the right instrument for such a vocal challenge – she
showed that already in The Expedition – and the
Osiris Trio sparks.”

“Charlotte Riedijk
was the soloist in 'Six Turkish folk poems'. With her smooth,
warm timbre she gave an intimate performance of this lieder
cycle.”
De Volkskrant 25/9/2010 |
| |
“Soprano Charlotte
Riedijk sung warmly and vibrantly in the brilliant 'Six Turkish
folk poems'…”
NRC Handelsblad 24/9/2010 |
| |
“In the quartet
with flute, contrabass, harp and percussion Dominguez Rangel
not only knows how to unleash mysteriously threatening atmospheres
but also intimate and fragile ones. Charlotte Riedijk manoevers
herein just as clearly as stimulatingly”
NRC Handelsblad 8/9/2010 |
| |
| “The highlight
of the performance (…) was 'Mach Kein' by the Korean
Myungoon Park, wherein Charlotte Riedijk completely explored
the capacity to switch between extremes”
De Volkskrant 8/9/2010
|
| |
"Soprano Charlotte
Riedijk was completely in her element in Urban Songs
by Klas Torstensson. (...) Riedijk was impressive as a vocal
artist, as a human sampler and in the enormous exclamations
that were repeated electronically."
NRC
Handelsblad 7/2/2008 |
| |
"It was only
impressive and gripping after the pauze with Klas Torstensson's
Urban Songs (1992). Power girl Charlotte Riedijk
(...) easily overcame the other three singers and the rolling
sounds from the loud speakers resonating from each corner were
surprising in their contemporary directness and city rawness.
Class!"
Trouw 8/2/2008 |

“With great
sense of theatre Charlotte Riedijk sings and speaks the touching
lyrics (...) Declamation, empathy and beautiful vocality are
perfectly balanced.”
Haarlems
Dagblad 2/4/07 |
| |
“Riedijk has
a crystal clear voice that shines with beauty (...) In Prokofiev’s
Five songs on poems by A. Achmatova Riedijk and Schrama
perfectly find the poetic tone.”
Haarlems
Dagblad 14/12/06 |
| |
“Charlotte Riedijk
sings and acts at top level. The acting above all, but the superb
art of Charlotte Riedijk’s singing is above all criticism.
Haarlems Dagblad 16/10/06 |
| |
“...and especially
a naturally singing Riedijk, in the terribly difficult Circles,
made the evening to a feast for the ears.”
Trouw 14/3/05 |
| |
“Soprano
Charlotte Riedijk brings her part (...) as if in wonder about
the magical result.”
NRC Handelsblad 14/3/05 |
| |
“In one word
‘magnificent’ was her performance of Mad Bess, in
which she fully used all her expressive possibilities.”
Friesch Dagblad 12/12/03 |
| |
“Riedijk is
already engraved in the festival’s collective memory for
last year’s riveting performance of Messiaen’s Harawi,
and with her familiar intensity of focus brought both clarity
and passion to Shostakovich’s death-obsessed writing.”
Irish Times 10/7/02 |
| |
“Charlotte Riedijk
sings Gretchen’s desire with passion and shimmering power.
Her voice has a beautiful, strong focus and a large range. With
her unpretentious style of singing she seems to be a natural
talent (...) in the meanwhile she gives evidence of possessing
a perfect technique, for which difficulties don’t seem
to exist.”
Haarlems Dagblad 17/1/02 |
| |
“Topping the
list of the year’s memorable performances is Messiaen’s
exotic song-cycle Harawi (...) performed with uncompromising
concentration by Charlotte Riedijk (soprano) and Joanna MacGregor
(piano)...”
The Irish Times 18/12/01 |
| |
“Riedijk shines
in works by Crumb”
De Telegraaf
17/12/2000 |
| |
“With soprano
Charlotte Riedijk the trio gives an in every aspect exciting
Shostakovich: sometimes intimate, sometimes very dramatic but
as intense as can be.
