“Intense to the end. Without disregarding Gluck’s intentions, Jennifer Williams stretched the emotional roller coaster optimally, using her sharp ear. Williams’ detailed character direction corresponded fully with the vocal expression.”
“She surrounded her completely different directing concept like an illusionist with light, smoke and mirrors.”
“An innovative vision ... She strips the opera of the false romance of the fairy tale and brings it back to the true core of mourning.”
