A Journey

A modern fairy-tale. Born in in the small town of Piet Retief, South African soprano Pretty Yende has risen to the top of the opera world with unparalleled speed. Yende’s début album celebrates the milestones of her sublime musical journey; starting at the age of 16, when she first got into touch with Opera by hearing Delibes’s Flower Duet on a television advertisement, to her début at La Scala and her international breakthrough at New York’s Metropolitan Opera. "She has an extraordinarily beautiful voice with a phenomenal technique, and lights up the stage with charisma." – Plácido Domingo
