Emma Matthews as Lucia is a star
24 Oct 12 / Australian Stage
The first-night audience gave the performance a wildly enthusiastic standing ovation
12 Oct 12 / Where I Live
It’s Charles and Diana all over again
3 Oct 12 / Daily Review
Emma Matthews embodies the mad heroine with consummate skill (and buckets of blood)
1 Oct 12 / Limelight
Virtuosity a side effect of drama and thrilling notes
1 Oct 12 / Sydney Morning Herald
Passionate soprano has opera in the blood
A bucket of fake blood amounts to business as usual for Emma Matthews in the lead role of Opera Australia's Lucia di Lammermoor.
