'At the side of Mr. Domingo, Hasmik Papian as Lisa has offered us one for her best performances ever, with a highly suggestive dark timbre and desperate intensity; she excelled especially in the two big arias which were of bewildering beauty' L'Opera (Milano) 'Khachatryan proves mature enough to forgo show-off stunts for the music's interior drama. The sense of focus in this performance is extraordinary' The Times Sponsored by the Benlian Trust / AGBU London
