RECENT ACCLAIM

“With the first trouser-role of her career, the much-loved Jennifer Maines enjoyed an immediate and tremendous success. She gave a convincing portrayal of Adriano… Her third act aria (very Bellini-like!) was very moving.”

– Online Merker, Dietmar Plattner

Magnificent in her differentiated use of vocal colours and complex acting, Jennifer Maines, in the role of the Secretary portrays two souls in one body.”

– Tiroler Tageszeitung, Ursula Strohal

Vocally Maines was impressive. Possessing a strong, well-supported soprano, she essayed the role with a considerable degree of expressivity, bringing depth and nuance to her characterization.”

– Opera WIRE, Alan Neilson
