Jamie Barton, a tremendous singer I've known since she was a Brownie scout with my daughter and who went to high school where I taught, has won the Cardiff Singer of the World 2013 competition. It's one of the top solo singing contests in the world, if not the top.
The entire concert is available here for a limited time.

She's the first one on of the five finalists, and she does four selections requiring a tremendous range of styles. If you like opera and art songs, this is two and a half hours of remarkable singing talents
