Soprano Latonia Moore and mezzo-soprano J'Nai Bridges sang arias, duets, blues and more in whirlwind 90-minute concert Wednesday at the Balboa Theatre
Opera is an art form that takes its time in delivering the goods to music lovers who wait. But that wasn't the case on Wednesday night, when superstar soprano Latonia Moore and soon-to-be superstar J'Nai Bridges worked their way through a treasure box of famous arias and duets as well as jazz, gospel and art songs in San Diego Opera's whirlwind season-opening concert at the Balboa Theatre.
Her vocal standout of the night was a heart-wrenching performance of Margherita's 'L'atra notte in fonda al mare' from Boito's 'Mefistofele.' Bridges has a large and smoky voice that soars with grace. She hasn't yet played the Egyptian princess Amneris in Verdi's 'Aida,' but her stunning performance in the opera's 'Silenzio' duet with Moore showed she will make a formidable Amneris in the future.
