"...Exciting, intelligent directing, full of humour and eroticism."
Opernnetz, June 2008

"…Carmen as self-concious woman without silliness,... Micaela not a naive girl in love,... José as a provincial employee,... Escamillo not a macho. Tonight we've seen how a clichée opera can be transfered into present."
Saarbrücker Zeitung, 16.06.2008
