“Finucane is one of those extraordinary mezzos emerging in the present generation . . . rich and resonant in the lower register, bright and graceful up in the territory that used to be reserved for coloratura sopranos.  She uses this voice intelligently and with fine musicianship.”

-- Joseph McLellan, WETA-FM, Washington, DC

 

“In the title role of Cinderella, Mary Pat Finucane floated with ease through the coloratura passages, sailing through the final famous aria . . . and lent a dark color to the role which was entirely appropriate.”
