I saw Andriana, whom I knew nothing about, sing the final dress rehearsal of L’Elisiri at the Met this past Monday, and she was fantastic, confident and in full control of her voice and the role. She gave as good as she got from Ramon Vargas and Erwin Schrott (Dr. Dulcamara) and there seemed to be a real lovefest between the performers. A intoxicating production all around!
