Opera News praises Sarah Beckham’s Lauretta as “winsome.” (Gianni Schicchi, New York City Martina Arroyo Foundation 2010)

“Sarah Beckham was both a tough yet fragile Lucia. Her voice reminded me of Italian sopranos of earlier generations. She projected a powerful sound in the higher range…thus heightening the tension…very effective acting…she received a well deserved hearty applause from the audience.” –Seen and Heard International Opera Review” (Lucia di Lammermoor, Opera Institute, Boston 2009)

“Sarah’s performance as Eleanor in the developmental premiere of my opera, ELEANOR ROOSEVELT, by the Lake George Opera Company at Saratoga, “brought to life” a very, gracious and elegant portrayal of “The first lady of the world.” Sarah’s willingness and courage to take on a major new role (on which the complete opera hinged), and her sense of responsibility with complete attention to details made an her ideal singer to premiere new works. As a composer, I also appreciated her excellent ear and vocal technique that enable her to realize contemporary scores with finesse and ease.” –Composer, Persis Parshall Vehar (ASCAP)
