Reviews
The Power of the Conductor
Conductor Asher Fisch turned Verdi's La forza del destino into a flowing and exciting work, into dramatic music blended with poetry. The Rishon LeZion orchestra sounded great under his baton. Simply, a great orchestra. Fisch managed to connect all the Verdi details into one entity, into a magnificent flow of music... Bass singer Paata Burchuladze stole the show with his enormous voice and powerful stage presence.
(Hanoch Ron, Yediot Aharonot)
“The performance was characterized by its directness and honesty. Here, you thought is Verdi’s Forza. And how often can you say that?”
(Opera Magazine, 2005)
