Jessica Pratt / Léirmheasanna

A true ride among high notes, virtuoso brilliance, two octave descending scales, Pratt brought all her mighty agility to the field. She's a mistress of excellent technique and the audience repaid her with an electrifying evening.

Jessica Pratt, serene and extrovert, without the need for the support of the score, turned out to be the singer with the most experience and mastery of her role. ... Pratt prevailed in acrobatic singing, thanks to her ease in the high notes and the control of vocal pyrotechnics. ... Notable was the Polacca «Son vergin vezzosa», in which she demonstrated her skills in aerial coloratura with detached, scales, dizzying vocalizations of good refinement and a magnificent echo effect towards the end of the piece.
