Performer: Zach Borichevsky

L'Opéra de Nice a fait face à sa malédiction en programmant l'opéra de Donizetti, non sans quelques frayeurs... Mais les inattendus Vladimir Stoyanov et Zach Borichevsky ont sauvé la production.

The combination of a strong, spirited cast and a first-rate orchestral performance led by Daniele Callegari rendered the opera a moving experience in spite of drab staging and latent, unexplored tensions.

Tom Cairns' production feels empty and distracted, but Kristina Mkhitaryan was a sensational Violetta, strongly reinforced by an impressive Germont from Igor Golovatenko.
