Nov, 2010When Opera Stars Show Their Frisky Side
Ms. Oropesa was exquisite in “Caro nome” from Verdi’s “Rigoletto.”None— Anthony Tommasini • New York Times
Metropolitan Opera - Das Rheingold
Ravinia Festival - Le Nozze di Figaro
Jul, 2010 - Aug, 2010Some fine singing, but Ravinia's 'Figaro' no match for previous Mozart opera
I was even more taken with Oropesa, the bright-voiced, very musical singer who played the chambermaid Susanna. Her sharpwitted and beautifully sung portrayal was a smooth fit with John Relyea's amused and amusing manservant, Figaro.None— John von Rhein • Chicago Tribune

Jul, 2010BSO takes on challenging Mozart opera ‘Seraglio’
Musically, things were more successful, starting with soprano Lisette Oropesa as Konstanze. Mozart put some of his most taxing vocal writing in “Seraglio,’’ including two arias for Konstanze — the mournful “Traurigkeit ward mir zum Lose’’ and the defiant “Martern aller Arten’’ — one after the other in Act II. Oropesa handled both with blistering power and assurance, as well as a range of vocal colors and emotional shadings. She is one to watch.None— David Weininger • Boston.com

Lisette Oropesa tiene una voz pequeña pero bella. Su Nannetta, junto al Fenton de Sola, formó un dúo de enamorados, juveniles y tiernos, y destacaría, entre las características de su técnica, su excelente fiato.Lisette Oropesa has a small but beautiful voice. Her Nannetta, alongside Sola's Fenton, made up a pair of youthful and tender lovers, and among the features of her technique, her excellent breath control would stand out.— Javier del Olivo • Mundo Classico
