What the press has said..

'...Behar delivered the songs, which in Spanish must have revolved around love, longing and exile, freedom and death, etcetera, without weeping all over the place. We got the poignancy without the puddles. Her voice was clear, comfortable and solid ; always in range without any sense of strain..' Stephen Malagodi

‘..Her sultry and poignant singing tends to have a hypnotic effect on an audience…’ Nick Smith, Charleston City Paper

‘..Susana’s music can be classified as folk art music… her sultry voice and style are a perfect foil for these spellbinding songs, some of which evoke a Portuguese Fado mood. Since I could not follow the words of the songs, the music came across as exotic and a bit mysterious…’ Manny Meland, MiamiARTzine.com..’

’Susana’s background puts her in the position of performing this music as ‘one of the folk’, with an incredible voice and artistic spirit.

This is truly a diverse musical language, as diverse as the wanderings of the Sephardic Jews.. Susana Behar sets the standard for the performance of this material…’ Steve Rosenberg, Chair Music Department – College of Charleston.
