Marianne Crebassa

[2] She attained greater recognition with a concert performance as Isabella Linton in a Festival de Radio France presentation, in Montpellier, of Bernard Herrmann's opera Wuthering Heights,[3] in which she also impressed the critics by playing the piano on stage.

[2] In 2012, she made her Salzburg Festival debut in a concert performance of Handel's Tamerlano, as Irene, which she swiftly repeated in a stage production at La Scala updated to early 20th century Russia.

[5] The Opera critic commented that "tall and lanky in britches or cropped trousers, she brought her lovely, focused mezzo to her portrayal of the penniless student" while noting that her "diction, however, too often encouraged recourse to the surtitles".

[9] She added Mélisande to her repertoire in 2018 in Berlin; originally at the instigation of Daniel Barenboim, she said that she felt she had "sung it my whole life" and found new colours in her voice and relishing the text.

[2] Filmed DVDs of her include Mozart's Lucio Silla and Le nozze di Figaro, Gluck's Orphée et Eurydice, Berlioz's Les Troyens, and Ravel's Shéhérazade in concert at the Waldbühne in 2019.
