Reviews
“Alison Langer’s Violetta…her quiet organization of the Act 1 double aria seemed to emanate from a singer of much wider experience: her coloratura was calmy controlled…phrasing succulently spacious….On this showing, she is at the start of something really big: certainly she looks and sounds ready for it.”

“luminous”
…Alison Langer’s Micaela was luminous, showcasing Langer’s firm and flexible soprano. She made Micaela’s sense of purpose dramatically musical without her ever seeming a prig. Act One was lovely, but in Act Three Langer showed her metal in the taxing aria here.

“star quality”
As for Alison Langer as Adina, she acted with the star quality of a West End diva, sang Donizetti’s low-dipping figures as ravishingly as his high lying coloratura and revelled in the attention of her onstage suitors and a rapt open-air audience.

“infinitely touching”
Langer’s Violetta, whose generous lyric Soprano blooms into an exquisite Act III, is infinitely touching with her reinventions through each act..

“extraordinary Violetta”
“Alison Langer is an extraordinary Violetta. She’s convincingly coquettish in the opening act and offers a hint of the drama and tragedy to come. Her performance in the final act is so powerful, that it’s almost hard to watch. She also delivers a note perfect rendition of Violetta’s stand out aria Sempre Libera..”
