The
Marriage of Figaro
“this
Figaro has the right ingredients … The Marriage of Figaro more than holds its
own”
Nick Kimberley, Evening Standard
“Sensitive
staging of Mozart‚s masterpiece … This production makes one hang on every word,
on every vocal phrase to fathom motives and emotions … Julie Unwin’s embattled
yet noble Countess, singing with a gleaming tone, is an impersonation rich in
nuances … Catrin Johnsson is an incomparable Cherubino … Ian Page conducts with
flair and panache … A glorious experience”
David Blewitt, The Stage
“Bateman
proved an entrancingly pretty and sweet voiced Susanna … Under Ian Page’s
sprightly direction, Mozart’s immortal score sparkled … ETO presents a broadly
traditional staging that will surely delight newcomers to this ever-astonishing
masterpiece, while giving ample pleasure to seasoned Figaro watchers.”
Hugh Canning, The Sunday Times
“very
beautiful, expert and enthusiastic singing and orchestral playing, full of
infectious enjoyment and a lovely balance of voices.”
Martin Black, Penman Black Creative Industries Consulting
