Resonance Works / Avaliações

This year’s White Snake event, “I Am a Dreamer Who No Longer Dreams,” departs from that trend. Friday evening, the Robert J. Orchard Stage at the Emerson Paramount Center held only three principal singers (all playing humans), the Boston Children’s Chorus, and Zane Pihlström’s striking, simple set. Jacobs’s collaboration with Mexican-born composer Jorge Sosa might be White Snake’s least logistically complex affair to date. It’s also the best.

Martinez possesses a bass voice of cavernous resonance and carrying power, and he acted the part with fitting discretion.
