REVIEWS
"Elettra is jealous of Ilia, who charms the heart of Idamante. No wonder, as Juanita Lascarro combines girlish charm with her fine Mozart coloratura." (Opernetz, March 2013)
"Lascarro is physically and vocally perfect for the role [Marguerite]. You can imagine exactly why a depressive 50-something male would go off the rails in pursuit." (Graham Rickson, The Arts Desk, on Opera North's production of Gounod’s Faust, October 2012)
“Juanita Lascarro in the title role [Poppea] was absolutely convincing both vocally and dramatically.” (Kurier, January 2010)
“The Colombian soprano Juanita Lascarro - petite, knowing, and utterly irresistible - becomes the convincing focus of everyone’s desire. The singing is first class.” (The Independent, June 2009)
“Juanita Lascarro brings ease of line, perfect intonation and tremendous charm to the part of Málinka.” (Financial Times, May 2008)
