Review:
"Rosa Feola triumphed as Gilda. Her physical and emotional evolution from a sheltered teenage girl [...] to a young woman [...] was real. Feola’s lyric soprano has a clear, bell-like quality, shown to lovely effect in her exquisite Act I aria, “Caro Nome.” Her coloratura, phrasing and sense of line were likewise."
Rick Perdian, "Seen and Heard International"
