"Quia respexit" from Magnificat

MARY BEVAN, soprano
Maria Lundbak, oboe
Magnus Larsson, organ

We're very pleased to share this week's Musical Postcard featuring the stunning vocals of soprano Mary Bevan. 

Just a few weeks ago, Mary performed "Quia respexit" from Bach's Magnificat in our virtual Gala. This performance was recorded specially for the Gala at Frederik’s Church in Copenhagen. 

Praised by Opera for her "dramatic wit and vocal control," British soprano Mary Bevan is internationally renowned in baroque, classical and contemporary repertoire, and appears regularly with leading conductors, orchestras and ensembles around the world. She is a winner of the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Young Artist award and UK Critics’ Circle Award for Exceptional Young Talent in music and was awarded a MBE in the Queen’s birthday honors list in 2019.

We look forward to welcoming Mary in future seasons and hope you enjoy this lovely recording.
