"Courageous rebel ... she suffers, squirms, breathes, begs (...), revealing her amazingly diverse vocal palette. If only young musicians had the same courage to open their programmes, concerts and albums like this more often! (...)
(...) Josefine Göhmann has overwhelmed us with her wonderful ease and attendant emotionality, so much so that one actually no longer focuses on "femininity" as "a" topic, but rather, by listening to this record, on entering spheres of highly nuanced variations of the subject (erotic, intellectual, human, wise). Loud applause!” - OPERNWELT

"réBelles! portraits lyriques" is an album by Josefine Göhmann in partnership with the German pianist Mario Häring. The album presents female archetypes – Vierge, Sirène, Héroïne, Ophélie – like exhibition rooms of a museum, containing songs instead of paintings, in which visual art resonates and the question of female self-determination “today” re-emerges after some 100 years of the women’s rights movement.
