This Week on Sunday Night at the Opera: Pumeza Matshikiza

There’s a new soprano on the block…..the young South African diva Pumeza Matshikiza, who has recently joined the ranks of those artists who go by their first name only.  Arias is her eclectic second CD for Decca, just released a few months ago, chock full of roles she has sung on international stages, roles she longs to sing, and some of her favourite art songs as well.  It’s too soon to say yet whether she will make it big, but it’s always fun to discover a new artist with potential, ambition, and a gorgeous voice.
