Michelle Veenemans - Soprano

South African Dramatic Coloratura Soprano, Michelle Veenemans.

Michelle Veenemans, hailed as “The Nightingale of South Africa” by the South African media, regularly appears in numerous recitals, oratorio concerts, opera and operetta concerts and charity gala evenings collaborating with various South African orchestras, ensembles and accompanists. Michelle Veenemans’s singing has been described as “exhilarating” by Artslink SA, as ”one of South Africa’s most e

ntertaining sopranos” by the SA Jewish Report, as a “prima donna and 'drama queen' deluxe” by the Cue Newspaper, as “a superb interpreter” by Beeld Newspaper and “having an unusual voice” by the Rapport Newspaper. Singing the role of the Queen of the Night in Namibia, the Algemeine Zeitung writes, “... She interprets the difficult and dramatic coloratura soprano magnificently and creates a spontaneous burst of applause...”. She is an admired exponent of oratorio, opera and operetta arias and established her reputation in singing showpiece arias such as Martern aller Arten from Mozart’s Die Entführung aus dem Serial, and Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen from Die Zauberflöte, arias from Offenbach’s Olympia, Gounod’s Juliette, Verdi’s Gilda and Bernstein’s Cunegonde. As operetta singer William Charlton-Perkins writes: "She deploys her creamy soprano’s extensive range, from a lusciously developed chest register to gleaming high notes, with a heady combination of abandon and control that constantly enlivens the music at hand".
