"La ciociara" wins best production of the year on OperaWire:
"Yet, the best of the year was undoubtedly Wexford Festival Opera’s production of Marco Tutino’s “La Ciociara.” Anyone who thinks opera is an art form stuck in the past should see it. It is full of rich, engaging melodies, possesses a captivating narrative, and can be emotionally overwhelming; it cannot fail to delight and impress anybody who likes opera. The stage director, Rosetta Cucchi, and conductor, Francesco Cilluffo, did a magnificent job of bringing it alive, and the cast, led by mezzo-soprano Na’ama Goldman, was truly excellent."
