2022 Opus Klassik Awards Nominee

Opus Klassik Awards 2022

“… She’s [Fahima] clearly a very useful singer to have around- an old-fashioned coloratura with a fresh, lucid tone and the requisite technical skills to get around all the notes… Orchestra and conductor are excellent throughout.”

Christopher Webber – Opera – March 2022

“… Her [Fahima] accurate staccato attacks and good trills recall the coloratura style of a previous era; and the youthful, mellifluous timbre is pure and even. Sometimes caressing. The well-chosen program … is mostly made up of standards but also excerpts from Donizetti rarities like Emilia di Liverpool and Rosmonda d’Inghilterra, and ‘Tu del mio Carlo al seno’ from Verdi’s Masnadieri. One can see why Fahima is a valued artist on one of the world’s most important opera houses…”

Allen Altman – American Record Guide – November/December 2021

“Born in Israel in 1987, soprano Hila Fahima is today a sought-after coloratura soprano. With luminous and very secure top notes, a warm middle register, impressive soft tones and perfect agility in coloratura, she should even delight opera lovers who have high expectations. The well-managed, finely articulating voice always remains vocally beautiful, never turning sour, and because the vibrato is very well controlled and minimal, the voice sounds quite young and slender. Hila Fahima is accurately accompanied by the ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra under Michele Gamba. “****
