REVIEWS

Horvath’s diminutive demeanor only heightened the exhilarating charm of her “Broadway Baby” (“Follies”), and the fervent intensity she brought to “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” (“Evita”). - Review by Donald Rosenberg, The Plain Dealer for concert with The Three Broadway Divas and the Cleveland Pops Orchestra.

Soprano Jan Horvath had the audience spellbound with her powerful vocal and dramatic performance of “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina”. -  Review by The Washington Post for concert with The National Symphony at Wolftrap.

Jan Horvath’s voice had the lilt of a songbird and a contagious coquettishness! - Review by The Salt Lake Tribune for a concert with the Utah Symphony.

Part Chanteuse and part show-biz blitzkreig, Horvath summoned pathos in “Evita” and flirty girlishness in “I Enjoy Being a Girl”. - Review by The San Diego Tribune for a concert with the San Diego Symphony.

Horvath held the emotions of the audience in the palms of her outstretched hands with “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” ( Who needs Madonna??). She also delivered an electrifying performance of “All I Ask of You”. - Review by The Cedar Rapids Gazzette for a concert with the Cedar Rapids Symphony.

The program started out on a high note with Horvath’s impassioned rendition of “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” - truly a bravo performance! - Review by “The Press Democrat for a concert with the Santa Rosa Symphony.

She was billed as the Broadway Diva, but Jan Horvath delivered the goods from Broadway and beyond at her Windsor debut over the weekend. She brought Broadway polish and professionalism to the Chrysler stage and was dazzling in an array of musical stage styles, from the classical strains of Sondheim and Rodgers and Hammerstein to more recent pop leanings of Menken and Lloyd Webber. The showstopper was a song not listed in the program or even a Broadway number - “My Heart Will Go On” from the film Titantic which was performed as an encore prior to the intermission. The audience Saturday gave Horvath a prolonged standing ovation for a heartfelt performance of “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina”. Dressed in a conservative but attactive gown, she looked like the tragic figure of Eva Peron. Horvath had five costume changes, in fact, joking at one point she loves to shop. In “All That Jazz”, she thrilled the audience in a hot-pink outfit, returned in a more demure dress for “Think of Me”, from “Phantom, then closing out the evening in a sexy purple number for “Life Is a Cabaret” and the encore, “New York, New York”. - Review by Ted Shaw, The Windsor Star for a concert with the Windsor Symphony Orchestra.

But the knockout of them all was Jan Horvath, who by herself is worth the price of admission. In “Wouldn’t it Be Loverly,” “I Could Have Danced All Night” and “The Rain In Spain” from “My Fair Lady,” she was Eliza Doolittle. And when she sang “I Dreamed a Dream” from “Les Miserables,” she became the character so quickly and convincingly that she put the audience completely under her spell. - Review by Kenton Robinson, The Courant for a concert with the Hartford Symphony.
