DORABELLA
COSÌ FAN TUTTE
OPERA SARATOGA, 2024
"Marvelous singing from a young ensemble cast in a clever and quick paced staging of Mozart’s “Cosi Fan Tutte” made for an enjoyable and touching opening night for Opera Saratoga...Mezzo-soprano Anna Kelly was a lively Dorabella, sister and side kick to Fiordiligi. Both characters freely indulged in what might be called the female gaze, commenting and scoring men on their look and build."
Joseph Dalton, Times Union
"Anna Kelly sang best Dorabella's indignation and anguish, perhaps because these moments allowed her to make full use of her impressive upper range. Here too was she the perfect ingenue, all-too-primed for Guglielmo's flirtations."
Evan Berkowitz, Berkshire Eagle
CENDRILLON
CENDRILLON
PALM BEACH OPERA, 2022
"Mezzo-soprano Anna Kelly was divine in her scene as Cendrillon. She communicated a strong, but coquettish character, and... produced a solid scene with perfect chemistry and beautiful voices. Brown’s mellow tones and versatility in how she moved as Le Prince on stage provided perfect counterpoint to Kelly, who glided in a large skirt, appropriate for a princess. This version of Massenet’s “Cendrillon” could be a full production, but only if Kelly and Brown are the leads."
