Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor is usually found in gloomy Scotland, not paddling on a sun-soaked beach, but the brilliant-voiced Lisette Oropesa thrived there anyway.None— Richard Fairman • Financial Times
Con fines benéficos e intención de redimirse, claro. La más brillante, de largo fue la soprano cubano-estadounidense Lisette Oropesa, que interpretó el aria «Regnava nel silenzio» de «Lucia di Lammermoor». La ópera de Donizetti, a la que habían consagrado en este 2020 la «prima» de La Scala antes de que llegara la pandemia, se vio relegada a una actuación más.For charitable purposes and with the intention of redemption, of course. The most brilliant, by far, was the Cuban-American soprano Lisette Oropesa, who performed the aria "Regnava nel silenzio" from "Lucia di Lammermoor." The opera by Donizetti, which had been dedicated at La Scala's "prima" in 2020 before the pandemic hit, was relegated to one more performance.— Ismael Monzón • La Razón
La migliore: Lisette Oropesa (voto 9)Il soprano Lisette Oropesa ha fatto capire cosa sarebbe potuta essere la prevista ‘Lucia di Lemmermoor’. Toccante il suo “Regnava nel silenzio”, fatto di splendide colorature e tanto altroThe best: Lisette Oropesa (rating: 9) Soprano Lisette Oropesa has shown what the anticipated 'Lucia di Lammermoor' could have been. Her "Regnava nel silenzio" was touching, made up of splendid coloraturas and much more.— Enrico Girardi • Corriere Della Sera
Fra i migliori, certamente la strepitosa Lisette Oropesa — canto perfetto al servizio di un fraseggio acuminatoAmong the best, certainly the sensational Lisette Oropesa — perfect singing in service of a sharp phrasing.— Nicola Cattò • Revista Musica
Der Preis des Abends gebührt eindeutig der Newcomerin Lisette Oropesa. Sie war als Premierenbesetzung für die Lucia-Aufführung angesetzt und durfte nun zum Trost die Arie der Lucia aus dem ersten Akt singen. Dabei konnte sie unter Beweis stellen, dass sie weitaus mehr als nur eine Coloratrice mit geläufiger Gurgel ist. Ihre Stimme sitzt perfekt, hat ein ausgesprochen schönes Timbre und wird von ihr wirkungsvoll eingesetzt. Da will man dann doch bald einmal mehr hören!The highlight of the evening undoubtedly goes to newcomer Lisette Oropesa. She was cast for the premiere of the Lucia performance and was allowed to sing Lucia's aria from the first act as a consolation. Here, she could prove that she is much more than just a colortura with a fluent trill. Her voice is perfectly pitched, has an extremely beautiful timbre, and she uses it very effectively. You'll no doubt want to hear more from her soon!— Andreas Schmidt • Klassik Begeistert
Arrive ensuite Donizetti et Lucia di Lammermoor, l’œuvre initialement prévue en cette ouverture de saison et ici “réduite” à un seul air (“Regnava nel silenzio”). Lisette Oropesa, à peine remise de sa déception de ne pouvoir endosser le rôle dans l’entièreté de l’œuvre, déploie dans cet extrait son timbre clair et pur, présentant une incarnation de Lucia portée par l’énergie et une certaine candeur, aussi.Next comes Donizetti and Lucia di Lammermoor, the work initially planned for this season opener and here "reduced" to a single aria ("Regnava nel silenzio"). Lisette Oropesa, barely over her disappointment of not being able to take on the role in the entirety of the work, unfolds in this excerpt her clear and pure timbre, presenting a portrayal of Lucia driven by energy and a certain innocence, as well.— Pierre Géraudie • Olyrix
