I am thrilled that our Maria Stuarda from the Teatro Real, directed by David McVicar and conducted by José Miguel Pérez-Sierra, is Video of the Month in Gramophone's Awards 2026 issue! Thank you to Gramophone and to Tim Ashley for the wonderful review, and congratulations to my colleagues Aigul Akhmetshina, Ismael Jordi, Roberto Tagliavini and Andrzej Filończyk, and to the chorus and orchestra of the Teatro Real.
“Both women give wonderful performances. Opinions will probably differ as to the respective merits of Oropesa’s singing in Salzburg and Madrid. She sounds astonishingly beautiful in both, though to my ears her tone has fractionally more lustre in Salzburg, whereas in Madrid, she’s marginally more incisive dramatically, the text admirably weighted and delivered.”
Tim Ashley, Gramophone
