Eva Kroon

Praised for her special ‘ability to express the moods hidden in the music – from sadness to exuberance’, mezzosoprano/contralto Eva Kroon in recent years has come to the forefront of the Dutch music scene as a singer of choice for roles for the lower female voice, steering, for instance, the third act of Offenbach’s Les contes d’Hoffmann ‘to a seldom heard highlight’ (Theaterkrant).

Early roles include Second Lady (The Magic Flute), Gluck’s Orfeo and Purcell’s Dido.
