Reviews
“She delivers a riveting performance of the ‘mad-scene’ aria ‘Where shall I fly?’, her richly colourful singing matched by dramatic, gutsy playing by the ensemble.”
“The only vocal fireworks in the first half come in the virtuosic aria ‘Son qual nave ch’agitata’ [I am like a ship tossed on the waves] by Farinelli’s brother Riccardo Broschi. It’s a real showpiece, treating the audience to a spectacular performance of rapid-fire acrobatics from the singer.”
“... the audience rise to offer a deserving standing ovation.”
