*****
“... most British listeners will still remember Dmitri Hvorostovsky beating Bryn Terfel as Cardiff Singer of the World. In the Russian repertoire he's naturally at home... But the real revelation comes from his non-Russian selection - Wagner's 'Abendstern', of which he makes something much darker and less sentimental than usual, yet profoundly moving, in excellent German and with a rock-firm tone that disgraces most rivals.”
Prince Igor (Knyaz Igor), Act II: Ni sna ne otdikha
