Clotilde van Dieren

A marvellous singer, with a sumptuous voice, of rare homogeneity and projection in the various registers, of seductive colour, capable of modulating her voice as desired to achieve the highest expressiveness.
Carthage Corriere di Tunisi
Clotilde van Dieren fit valoir une voix saine et chaleureuse, une justesse sans faille et des aigus brillants, une assurance musicale et un évident bonheur de chanter.
La Libre Belgique (Martine Dumont-Mergeay)
Clotilde van Dieren’s voice is truly something special. There’s a certain richness and emotional depth to her mezzo-soprano sound that captivates listeners. It’s one of those voices that seems to resonate deeply with both the music and the emotion behind it, which is what makes her performances so memorable.

Clotilde van Dieren & Katsura Mizumoto

The recording of this Chanson du vent is a celebration of Adolphe Biarent. This greatly neglected composer emerged from the shadows thanks to three CD releases by Cypres. The cycle of Huit mélodies for mezzo-soprano completes this process aiming as it does to highlight an exceptional musical personality through world premiere recordings. Such an action can only work when based upon the total dedication of thoroughly committed performers who enhance a programme inspired by the musical orientalism in vogue at that time.

Une petite merveille
Le Soir (Serge Martin) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
️An oriental anthology by Clotilde van Dieren. « She knows how to balance her timbres in both her highs and lows. Depending on the content of the text, she sounds clear at times and dark at others. The sometimes quick changes in performance testify to Van Dieren’s vocal control. 
Klassiek Centraal (Helena Gaudeus) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Un univers aux mélismes sensuels et aux rythmes balancés (Katsura Mizumoto au piano), auquel la mezzo belge Clotilde van Dieren offre un timbre chaud et coloré, une diction parfaite et un grand naturel. 
La Libre Belgique (Martine Dumont Mergeay) ⭐️⭐️
« La chanson du vent » – Clotilde van Dieren, Katsura Mizumoto
→ Plusieurs véritables raretés dont les 8 Mélodies de Biarent, Alger le soir de Félix Fourdrain ou l'entêtante Chanson mauresque de Tunis de Francisco Salvador-Daniel !  Belle sélection de pièces très persuasives.
→ Interprétation par un mezzo capiteux mais à la diction précise, la voix sonne très « opéra » mais se coule remarquablement dans les exigences de l'exercice. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
