FROM THE PRESS

Anna Netrebko was magnificent … Plush, intensely beautiful singing. New York Times

Netrebko is a jewel ... I cannot imagine anyone else, past or present, who could so abundantly fulfill (and sometimes even excel) the possibilities of this role. Observer

The finest cast the production has yet seen. Financial Times
