Emily Van Evera is an American soprano who specializes in early music and Baroque music in historically informed performance.
Born in Minnesota, she has collaborated in Europe and the US with ensembles such as the
Orchestra of the 18th Century, and the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra. She has recorded music by Johann Sebastian Bach with several conductors.[1]
Van Evera recorded music by
The Proms, on 3 August 1985, performing in the Royal Albert Hall Bach's St Matthew Passion, with Kurt Equiluz as the Evangelist and Benjamin Luxon as the vox Christi (voice of Christ).[4] and on 22 July 1991 with Monteverdi's Vespro della Beata Vergine.[5] In 1994 she appeared with the ensemble as Dido in Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, with Ben Parry (musician) as Aeneas. A reviewer of the recording noted her expressivity: "vocal acting conveys a feeling of physical presence".[6]
