Reviews
Natalia Rubis gefällt als Calisto mit leuchtenden Koloraturen, die sich vor allem im zweiten Akt in der aus der Oper Alcina übernommenen Arie ”Tornami vagheggiar” entfalten können. Wenn sie im dritten Akt mit ihrem Schicksal hadert, geht Rubis’ Interpretation darstellerisch und stimmlich unter die Haut.

Erfolgreicher zeigt Natalia Rubiś als Einspringerin in der Partie der Callisto, wie solide Technik dem Ausdruck des Singens zuträglich ist: Mit ihrem hell timbrierten, schlanken Sopran lässt sie Staccati, punktierte Noten und elegante Figuren keck abspringen; erfüllt ihre Klagearie im dritten Akt mit feiner Wärme.
