Mettiti qua così. Il tutore burlato
Reviews
IL TUTORE BURLATO. PALAU DE LES ARTS. 2020
"Vocalmente destacó el barítono Omar Lara como Pippo; es una de las voces más destacadas del actual curso del Centre de Perfeccionament y demostró no solo madurez interpretativa tanto en lo vocal como en lo escénicos, sino también amor por la música que interpretaba" César Rus (Ópera Actual)
LES MAMELLES DE TIRESIAS. PALAU DE LES ARTS. 2019
"Se trata de una ópera muy coral sin muchas partes solistas, pero hay que comentar la actuación de Omar Lara como Le Directeur du théâtre, quien tiene encomendado la interpretación del prólogo. El joven cantante lo afrontó con solidez" César Rus (Ópera Actual)
