Roberto Kalb / Iritziak

The Lyric Opera’s most recent version..is refreshingly unfussy from both a musical and a dramatic standpoint. It featured exceptional musical direction from conductor Roberto Kalb, a newcomer who made the Kansas City Symphony sound warm and vibrant."

"Roberto Kalb drew a sensitive and lush performance from the San Diego Symphony, highlighting the sadness and despair in the score and providing impeccable support to the singers."
