Some press response to past Mari Moriya performances

"The sumptuous-voiced Japanese soprano Mari Moriya". Opera Ireland/Opera 

"Following her Metropolitan Opera debut in the role, Mari Moriya’s Queen of the Night brought a real sense of theatrical climax." Glyndebourne on Tour/Music OMH

"Mari Moriya ... absolutely stole this show. Her first aria, 'Signore, ascolta', displayed a hair-raising control of dynamics and vibrato, her every nuance of timbre faithful to her character and to the poignant words of her aria. She is a born Puccini soprano, such is the demure effortlessness with which she conquers the highest registers." Opera Ireland /Sunday Tribune

Stunning billing for this concert supporting vital work with traumatised children..Look forward to Mari's only performance in Ireland this year, an afternoon of glorious music in a delightful Georgian setting with renowned acoustic. It's going to be sensational!
