Anglais - Pikovaya Dama at the Liceu: The Return of a Historic Production
[…] projected voice, Haroutounian delivered a good style Lisa that worked better in the important solo interventions than in the duets with Eyvazov. Lena Belkina performed with a very good and melodious voice and with great legato lines the two characters of Polina and Milvozor. The Countess, a very important character dramatically speaking as she concentrates all the sinister and dark aspects of the piece, was performed with great musical and dramatic results by Elena Zaremba, the same mezzosoprano who interpreted Polina in the 2010 performances. Rodion Pogossov did a generally good Prince Yeletsky. His role though contains one of the most beautiful arias by Tchaikovsky for a deep male voice, "Ya vas lyublyu", only comparable to Gremin’s area in Ievgueni Onieguin. Pogosov performed it well but more was expected of his opportunity to shine. Łukasz Goliński interpreted well his two characters Count Tomsky and Zlagotor and honoured his […]

Great singers in the Met´s final offerings Tchaikovsky´s “Eugen Onegin” and Strauss´”Der Rosenkavalier”
[…] Anna Netrebko, and the sensitive baritone Peter Mattei supplanting Dmitri Hvorostovsky, unfortunately very ill, as Onegin. Lenski was a first-rate Russian tenor, Alexey Dolgov, who sung with style and acted very well. I found Stefan Kocan rather gruff as Gremin. Olga, Tatiana´s coquettish sister, was done very attractively by mezzo Elena Maximova. And two artists who were stars twenty years ago, gave style and knowledge to Madame Larina (Elena Zaremba) and Filippyevna, the wet-nurse (Larisa Diadkova). Netrebko may be nowadays a bit too matronly for the part, but her singing and acting was so admirable that it didn´t matter, and her beloved Onegin was interpreted ideally by Mattei. The conductor, Ricardo Ticciati, was a surprise: young and very intense, he proved congenial to […]
