Press Quotes

"Teresa Perrotta, whose big, sunny soprano belied the frequent hangdog presentation of this role. Ms. Perrotta suffered her indignities with secure, arching lines and melodiously amorous pleading."

— Opera Today

"We suppose every opera lover already knows the legend that Mozart wrote Come scoglio for a soprano he abhorred and deliberately made it challenging to defeat her. We don't know if that is true or not but we do know that soprano Teresa Perrotta was undefeated! Oh, those challenging skips and demanding coloratura were no match for this brave Fiordiligi"

— VOCE DI MECHE

"Teresa Perrotta conveyed the queen’s wistful sadness in a sweet, rich voice reminiscent of Teresa Stratas, the original Marie Antoinette."

— Classical Voice North America
