Sarah Defrise dedicates her first new music album to the American mezzo-soprano Cathy Berberian.

At Saint Thomas the Apostle Harlem
Live at St. Thomas the Apostle documents Diamanda Galás’ volcanic May 2016 performance at St. Thomas the Apostle church in Harlem NY, described by the New York Times as "guttural and operatic, baleful and inconsolable, spiritual and earthy, polyglot and wordless, nuanced and unhinged."
