“With Marie José Siri, he had an Abigaille at his side who would stand up to any star. With a beautiful round voice and dramatic outbursts, she brings out the character of the offended and ambitious daughter, who at the end asks for forgiveness, also arousing great applause ”.
Salzburger Nachrichten
“In the lead is the Uruguayan Maria José Siri, who played the dreaded role of Abigaille with ease. [...] Not only were her upper tones and her effect-laden coloratures very impressive and bombproof, but also her creative power and the lyrical strings with which she touched the dying scene ”.
DER OPERNFREUND
“But the real highlights of the evening were others in the way in which Verdi treated the Jew in exile in Babylon: María José Siri was a fantastic Abigaille, whose rich voice alternated seamlessly between a whispering stream and a impetuous stream".
Kronen Zeitung
“It was accompanied by a high quality ensemble: María José Siri, in the role of Abigaille, chased away her flaming hatred in a terrifying way. But she was also quite capable of lyrical tones ”.
Kurier
"Maria José Siri is at the peak of her abilities, and her controlled and brilliant Abigaille was fascinating.”
