The titlerole of the courtesan Violetta Valery,based on Camille in “The Lady of theCamellias” by Alexandre Dumas fils,was sung and acted to perfection bysoprano Andrea Bargabos. The drinkingsong “Libiamo,” sung with her eageryoung suitor, Alfredo, was a blendof bravura fireworks, with Ms. Bargabosrevealing a creamy voice of greatbeauty, agility and power.Her floating tones and portamentosof “Ah, Fors’è Lui” were astonishing,and Ms. Bargabos scored a triumphin a thrilling “Sempre Libera,”with ornamental phrasing and coloraturafireworks, and an electrifyinghigh E-flat at the end! Ms. Bargabosability to “swell” and diminish ona high note showed remarkable breathcontrol.In the second act, Ms. Bargabos’defiance to the elder Germont’s insistencethat she leave Alfredo to preservethe family honor, and her ultimateyielding to his request, washeartbreaking. Her “Alfredo, di questocore” in the third act gripped ourhearts with an outpouring of anguishand vocal gold. Her “Addio del Passato”in the final act and “Ah! Gran Dio!”and her sudden burst of life before herfatal collapse was riveting. Her letterscene was penned to last forever inmemory. Ms. Bargabos was a Violettafor the ages!Her Alfredo was the promisingyoung tenor David Bailey. Bailey’ssinging in the “Libiamo” revealed apurely lyric sound with a bit of bite toit. Bailey’s singing of “De’ Mei BollentiSpiriti” at the beginning of the secondact was nicely performed, and hehit a solid high C in the cabaletta thatfollowed. His plangent outpouring intheir final duet “Parigi, o Cara” had ardentsweetness. Bailey’s defiance ofthe elder Germont was effective, andhis remorse was touching.The role of the elder Germont wasin the secure hands of Ricardo Rosa,whose rich, round and mellow baritoneblended well with Violetta in the“Piangi” duet. Germont’s exquisite singingof “Di Provenza Il Mar, Il Suol“ conjuredup the great baritones of the past,and his remorse and request for forgivenessat the finale struck our hearts.Mezzo Jennie Mescon was a splendidFlora Bervoix, friend to Violetta,and vibrant baritone Kevin Rockowerwas a strong Baron Duphol. His resoundingglove slap of Alfredo at theend of Act 2 was great theater.The rest of the cast included NicholasConnelly as Marquis d’Obigny;Jonathan Dauermann as a resonantDr. Grenvil, a physician; ChristinaHourihan as Violetta’s loyal, sympatheticmaid Annina; Bryan Ribeiro’sGiuseppe, a servant; Daniel Kerr as acommissioner; and the multi-talentedWayne Olsen as Flora’s servant.The production featured brightand colorful period costumes by JuliaAt a party at Violetta’s house, Alfredo (Paolo Buffagni, seated left), Violetta (Alexis Cregger,seated right) and the rest of the guests enjoy the evening.Cornely, lighting by Tyler Learned andsupertitles by Linda Cantoni.The chorus sang with power andprecision. The plush sets, designed byLinda Lehr, of Violetta’s Paris salonwith its ribald parties, the Act 2 floralgardens, and the final act’s grim bedchamber,were remarkable. The stagedirection, also by Linda Lehr, broughtus into the drama of salons and thesplendor of Violetta’s world with fluidityand abandon.The brilliant conducting of MaestroScott Jackson Wiley and the 33splendid musicians of the Regina Orchestrakept things going at a briskpace. The strings, so prominent inthe preludes and throughout, werein the sterling hands of concertmasterYelena Savranskaya. Maestro Wileybrought out all of the nuance and poignancyof this magnificent score. Welook forward to the 44th season of operaat Regina!<strong>Fri</strong>day, <strong>June</strong> <strong>14</strong>, <strong>2013</strong> • <strong>Brooklyn</strong> <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Eagle</strong> • 19
