ABOUT
"Het resultaat, A songbook of Rare Feelings, klinkt verrassend homogeen. Dat ligt deels aan de ingetogen, bijna blanco zang van Rianne Wilbers"
- Guido van Oorschot, De Volkskrant
"'Rianne is limitless in a positive way. She dares to do things that someone else would not do so quickly and therefore achieves a lot."
- Bart van Dongen, Music Hub Brabant
"All praise to Rianne Wilbers who carried the opera with vocal mastery and a lot of expression."
