"Soprano Cadie J. Bryan [was] a sweet Giannetta."
LISA HIRSCH |
SANTA FE CLASSICAL VOICE
"Lawless gave the village lass Giannetta more to do than in most stagings, especially in the realm of comic business, and second-year apprentice Cadie J. Bryan made the most of the opportunity. Her character gave the sense of being a fully rounded personality who was always alert to whatever was happening onstage, and she sang very well in her biggest opportunity, the scene in which she tells the other young women of the village about Nemorino’s surprise inheritance."

SHARPS AND FLATIRONS
"Cadie J. Bryan had more stage time than usual as Giannetta, and the petite soprano commanded attention and admiration for her stage presence and musical excellence. Ms. Bryan’s Act II aria was a delight, her shining, confident soprano easily seizing the moment and ravishing the ear. "

The evening also featured soprano opera singer Cadie J. Bryan, who first appeared in the program for “O Mio Babbino Caro” from Puccini’s “Gianni Schicchi.” Her voice is clear as a bell and beautiful, and when she and Bocelli joined together for later selections, their vocal blend was truly lovely.

PIET LEVY | MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL
Soprano Cadie J. Bryan was the evening's third outstanding opera singer, making a goose-bump-inducing first impression with radiant aria "O mio babbino caro" from Giacomo Puccini's 1918 opera "Gianni Schicchi," and her accompaniment for Bocelli's most beloved premiere, "Con te partirò," was just as crucial Saturday to its power as the tenor's own voice.

Cadie J. Bryan and baritone husband, Jonathan Bryan, sit down with Joseph Airdo from IMAGES Arizona to discuss working together and the impact of iconic pieces like The Sound of Music in live theatre today.
“It does not feel like I am playing Maria... It feels like I am playing ‘The Sound of Music.’ It feels like this huge entity. It is so important to so many people and feels so much larger than me.”

"In a refreshing bit of casting, the role of Berta was reimagined as a young sexy maid, allowing soprano Cadie J. Bryan to steal a bit of the scene in her various comings and goings. She also surprised the ear by offering her fresh, pleasing soprano to Berta’s often ignored aria di sorbetto."

"The role of Berta only provides one aria with which to showcase singing skills, but Cadie J. Bryan captivates the audience in “Il vecciotto cerca moglie” with a dazzling voice."

Soprano Cadie Jordan, a second-year Studio member, opened the program with "Sleep why dost thou leave me" from Handel's 1744 opera, Semele. She began with a significant messa di voce on the first note and continued with a smooth legato and a well placed trill... and showed both the beauty of her even range and her technical ability.
