Measha Brueggergosman

Tuesday, November 27, 2007

Canadian soprano Measha Brueggergosman is a true original on the classical music scene -- sporting a big afro and often performing barefoot, writing colorful columns for Canada’s National Post, and forging a musical path distinct from most opera divas. Her new CD, "Surprise," is a program of cabaret songs by William Bolcom, Arnold Schoenberg and Erik Satie. She joins us for a live performance in our studio.

    Dear Katherine Lanpher;

    The song heard in the background is

    "Je te veux=I want you" composed by Erik Satie & not by Francis Poulenc.

    Cheers.

    Hamid.
