May 16th, 2024 |
After the premiere, in a semi-staged version, of the operetta Die Fledermaus, within the ORTVE season at the Teatro Monumental, with Anita Hartig and Leonor Bonilla in the main roles, the press has echoed the splendid work done by both sopranos.
Thus, in Platea Magazine one can read that the “soprano Anita Hartig [...] was elegant, giving an air of marshaless to her role of Rosalinda, with her doses of nostalgia and refinement” while of Leonor Bonilla they say that she was “brilliant and impeccable in her vocal filigree, Leonor Bonilla as Adele, with ease for the high pitch, and bringing a delightful freshness in each intervention.”
For its part, Codalario, referring to both sopranos, says that “the two sopranos summoned were ideal in their characters. The Romanian soprano Anita Hartig, with a lyric soprano voice, knew how to put in value both musically and acting the tricks of the deceived wife who manages to break her husband by demonstrating her betrayal by means of a watch taken from him at the previous night's party.
She stood out in her vocal means, with a very homogeneous voice, built from bottom to top, in the love duets and the entanglement duets, as well as in the very famous czardas, “Klange der Heimat [Sounds of my homeland]”, which is the musical highlight that this character exhibits to dazzle everyone (including her own husband), as a simulated Hungarian princess, at Prince Orlofsky's party.
The solvent light soprano, the Sevillian Leonor Bonilla, of ascending career, gave accurate acting and singing life to the character of Adela, servant in the house of the couple Gabriel-Rosalinda, who allows herself to attend the party of Prince Orlofsky using one of the dresses of her mistress, and where she also sings the famous laughter romanza “Mein Herr, Marquise”, this time in a very technical and elegant way by Bonilla, not at all overacted, with beautiful enameled timbre and good projection. “
