A.Grigorian, who appeared at the Salzburg Opera Festival – the foreign media Culture

The Financial Times: "If this" Salome "succeeds – and it happens – it's pretty much Grigorian.His Salome completes all the others.On the huge and empty stage that it represents – a gorgeous figure with a white dress – and all the audience breathes with her.This is no longer a speaker, a consequence of more damage than a victim, it embodies all the suffering and prolongation that results from the fact to be in the last bastard of humanity in this uncontrollable world. <...> In the end, no one has more importance.The wave of Grigorian's charisma takes on its own , while Franz Welser-Möst of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra gets such a melody that you hear up to now the eventful history of the most well-known work. "

Der Standart: "Asmik Grigorian created the enchanted main hero <...> half-villain, half-destructive vengeful angel. She grew up in dirt and bad milk, becoming bright in color, lyrical colors and dramatic extremes. The Lithuanian singer was only sung of the famous vocal dance – Castelluccis refused him, instead Grigorian was in the posture of the embryo. Thanks to this incredible performance, a 37-year-old singer was able to enter the highest league. "

Orf:" Saturday, 22 hours – the salute. The audience, at first in a state of complete shock, recovered enthusiasm for applause and celebrated the birth of a new star in the sky of the opera. And they were right. Grigorian, with the help of Franz Welser-Mösto and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, who interprets music with an immense hobby, sings before the director's creation and becomes stronger and compelling for it . "

BR-Klbadik:" She's great: Asmik Grigorian sings, embodies, – is Salome. His flamboyant soprano eclipses all the excesses of the Strauss orchestra. While singing the piano, her voice gains an alluring lightness, but when she calls Johanan's head to the lowest register, she feels the full limit of emotional discomfort. Sliding on a white dress <...> she moves on an almost empty scene with golden floors and dominates tonight: gestures, steps, eyes, breathtaking vocal powers. "

Der Tagesspiegel:" The voice of Asmik Grigorian is by nature rather harsh, but from within it can spread so much power that the listener will simply be carried away. "

Next February, A.Grigorian plans to appear on the stage of the Palace of Congresses at the premiere of the opera" Pikai Damos "
