Reviews

Following her concert with Arion Baroque at Bourgie Hall, April 5, 2025.
[…] The brilliant soprano Marianne Lambert reveals a voice that has become richer and fuller, with a very touching expression. […] She went one step further with the concert’s climax: “O, let me forever weep”, from The Fairy Queen […] and sang a touching “When I am laid in earth” by Purcell. […] The bravura aria “No, no I’ll take no less” from Semele was mastered with bite and virtuosity by Marianne Lambert, violinist Julie Rivest and the orchestra. Full article.

— Christopher Huss, Le Devoir

A lovely light soprano whose sweet timbre and supernatural vocalizing float into the stratosphere with the ease of a tightrope walker.

— Emmanuel Dupuy, Diapason (France)

The young soprano from Quebec, Marianne Lambert, is pure perfection: her airborne fairy vocalizes with disarming assurance, including trills and extended register, entirely appropriate for the style, yet with a totally fresh approach.

— Opera Online (France)

Another standout was the coloratura Marianne Lambert as the Fairy Godmother, who added good acting to the main elements of fluid athleticism and brilliant sound.

— Arthur Kaptainis, The Gazette

On her album: Canzone di Notte (Fidelio)
Together Lambert and Milot create a grand edifice of song through this well-chosen repertoire.

— The WholeNote

Marianne Lambert of Quebec, discovered a few seasons ago at Opéra de Rennes in Reynaldo Hahn’s Ô mon bel inconnu, makes light of all the vocal acrobatics of the role with unmistakable charm and virtuosity, contributing to the magic of these scenes.
