Stephanie Blythe has the chameleon-like ability to finesse an array of repertoire and roles. Initially hailed as the successor to the great Marilyn Horne, her career has rapidly grown to encompass music from Baroque to bel canto and from Classical to contemporary with "compelling immediacy and subtle differentiation" -Wall Street Journal.
