Kaleidoscopic is not quite a strong enough word to describe this collection of pieces sung by young phenomenon . This is 's second album; the first, 2020's , was an exploration of the Arab influence in European music, daring enough for a debut. Here, she goes perhaps even further, offering vocal pieces in six languages (French, English, Spanish, German, Italian, and Arabic) ranging from opera to zarzuela to 's . There are moments when centrifugal force threats to break the program apart, but has the talent to hold it together. The voice remains truly remarkable, for one thing; it is a sparkling, startlingly clear soprano in which the listener can luxuriate, and has obviously picked material that resonates for her. The operatic selections from the first half of the program may be common enough recital items for a young singer, but the aria , from 's "tango-operita" , is not, and she brings this off with flair. If there is a chink in 's linguistic armor, it is that she does not seem perfectly at ease in the rhythms of colloquial American English, although there is something to enjoy in each of her popular song renditions here. This is true as well in the finale, given a full classical treatment. It is diva-ish in the best way, and one comes away from the whole thing convinced that has thought through her career three or four steps in advance of what is here. She is well supported by the under and by a variety of other ensembles. is a major phenomenon, and one can only watch breathlessly to see what comes next. ~ James Manheim
