“Alongside him, Irina Lungu proves herself to be a first-class soprano on the international operatic scene; compared to her 2013 role debut at the Filarmonico in Verona, she appears to have grown to be a “lirico puro” soprano; with secure agility right from her cavatina, she sounds even more precise in a convincing performance of the final Rondò. As always, Lungu’s variations are original and musically very tasteful. As an actress she proves to be once again a self-assured and witty artist.”
Andrea R. G. Pedrotti, L’ape musicale
“Irina Lungu surprises as Norina / “Sofronia” after Donna Anna, Elettra from Idomeneo and Violetta. This is a wonderfully buffa-esque fury with vocal and dramatic power! The garlands of coloratura are lively, but she also does thelyrical passages justice.”
