Renée Fleming is one of the greatest sopranos of our time. She also possesses a delightful musical curiosity and sense of adventure. I've had the honor and pleasure of accompanying her singing a French art song, jazz standards, Bach's "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" with a jazzy Scottish flair in the accompaniment, a Stephen Foster tune, and classic Christmas tunes with lyric rewrites by Mr. Keillor. She's great... and fearless.
