Lars Cleveman / Reseñas

His sturdy heldentenor rang out in the forging scene, and he paced himself throughout the rigours of the part, sounding fresh and boisterous in the last act

La JUive, Gothenburg Opera: Eléazar’s mournful farewell aria, was performed with a passionate grief by Cleveman which was heightened by the rare colouring with syncopated blue notes indicative of Halévy’s Jewish ancestry.
