THIS IS A PAST EVENT
Audra McDonald, vocalist
Spivey Hall Debut
A unique force in the world of theater (four Tony Awards), television (ABC’s Private Practice), and music (two Grammy Awards), Audra McDonald maintains a major career as a concert and recording artist, commanding a luscious, classically-trained soprano with an incomparable gift for dramatic truth-telling.
“She’s the diva next door: tall, a tiny bit gawky, totally gorgeous—and that voice. Full and mellow, elegant and sexy, lush, plush, brassy, growling, howling across her gigantic range, or expressing starry-eyed enchantment. She pounces on a song like a cat, then lives inside it” (San Jose Mercury News).
