Leah Crocetto's Schwabacher debut recital on Sunday with stage presence big and small

http://www.examiner.com/x-2366-SF-Opera-Examiner~y2010m4d20-Leah-Crocettos-Schwabacher-debut-recital-on-Sunday-with-stage-presence-big-and-small

By Cindy Warner [SF Opera Examiner, 20 April 2010]

Leah Crocetto, wry, affectionate, tender, warm, reverent and robust, sleek and full of stage presence with an air of earthy New York sophistication, gave her first recital at age thirty Sunday night at Temple Emanu-El’s Martin Meyer Sanctuary in Pacific Heights. The soprano is an award-winning Adler Fellow with San Francisco Opera. Was I the only one getting goose bumps and holding back tears at the end? Everybody else seemed elated and talkative, emerging into courtyard and the Pacific Heights dusk after witnessing history in the making.
