Christmas Issue 2013

Opolais's physical grace and fine lyric-dramatic soprano would elsewhere embody the young and older Tatyana's; baritone Artur Rucinski phrases the Act 1 arioso better than anyone since Dmitri Hvorostovsky.

July 2013

Opolais's Tatyana is the stuff of dreams musically and acting-wise, Korchak's Lensky and Groissböck's Gremin most effective and Rucinski's dark Onegin a handsome voice that sounds a size too small for the role in a big house...Sound is good, filming effective

May 2013

The stand-out onstage, Dmitry Korchak...sing with impeccable style, looks handsome and can fill an empty stage with personality...Rucinski is velvet-voiced...but until Act 3 the singing is frustratingly uninflected...Opolais is exceptionally committed dramatically, not quite compensating for singing that, although pristine in tone, remains oddly anonymous.

5th July 2013

Musically this is well sung by everyone, but the roles of Tatyana, Olga and Onegin seemed to me to be quite outstandingly well performed. Kristine Opolais is absolutely wonderful...Make no mistake, this is a superb cast...if you are an experienced opera-goer and like a challenge, this spectacular and thought-provoking Blu-ray is worth your money
