Quotes
"Most moving was a gossamer rendition of the Mahler Ruckert Lieder by Keegan, her effortless line and a diaphanous orchestral accompaniment, floating the listener into dreamscapes of fragrance, celestial gazing and solitary musings."
Eamonn Kelly, The Australian, 17 August 2018.
"Liane Keegan makes a thrillingly sung Erda, her rich Alto riding Wagners orchestral textures."
Clive Paget, Limelight
