  • Verdi | Rigoletto - Duke of Mantua

    Irish Natinal Opera
    Dec 2024
    • Proving that all good things come in threes, tenor Bekhzod Davronov made for an excellent Duke of Mantua. Vocally, he possesses a clear, bright voice with a laser hot vibrato. Verdi sets the tessitura for the Duke punishingly high at times but Davronov gave the impression that he could always give more. He was touching in his love duets with Gilda, showing a suave lyricism when needed. The way he insolently stared at the audience for his famous “La donna è mobile” was very waggish.

    • Tenor Bekhzod Davronov who played the Duke of Mautua hails from Samarkand in Uzbekistan. He has a sweet tenor voice that is easy in the high notes and possesses a smooth, warm, and sincere sound. With an assured stage presence, his rendition of the well-known “La donna è mobile” in act three was a joy to witness.

  • Puccini | La Rondine - Prunier

    Metropolitan Opera
    Mar 2024 - Apr 2024
    • Davronov and Tetelman both made fine Puccini tenors, …. his smooth, rounded tone was warm, and his phrasing elegant,

    • soprano Emily Pogorelc and tenor Bekhzod Davronov both filled the stage with a breath of fresh air. … brought a gorgeous ardent tenor, especially as he sang the first lines of “Chi bel sogno di Doretta.”

    • we were treated to a buttery, sincere sound, well worth a second listen.

    • Davronov as Magda’s poet friend Prunier was charming and pleasant, with a well-focused tenor.

    • the light, sweet tenor of Bekhzod Davronov, who made a fine impression as Prunier from his first appearance in Act I

    • there was the Uzbek tenor Bekhzod Davronov as Prunier, who showed a voice on the tip, easy in the high notes and with a very good stage presence.

  • Verdi | Otello - Cassio

    Wiener Staatsoper
    Oct 2023 - Nov 2023
    • Der aus Usbekistan stammende Sänger Bekhzod Davronov gibt ein starkes Hausdebüt in der Rolle des Cassio. In dieser Rolle hat vor rund 20 Jahren auch Jonas Kaufmann seine ersten Auftritte in Verdis Otelo absolviert. Mal sehen, was aus diesen nicht allzu großen, aber wunderbar eleganten und in den höheren Registern stimmsicheren, ausdrucksstarken Tenor werden wird. Davronov hat jedenfalls das Zeug dazu, Karriere zu machen. [Translated] Uzbekistan-born singer Bekhzod Davronov makes a strong house debut in the role of Cassio. It was in this role that Jonas Kaufmann made his first appearances in Verdi's Otelo about 20 years ago. Let's see what will become of this not too big, but wonderfully elegant and expressive tenor in the higher registers. In any case, Davronov has what it takes to make a career.

    • Smaller roles were well cast and sung, the standouts being Szilvia Vörös' Emilia, Bekhzod Davronov’s Cassio and Leonardo Neiva’s Montano.

  • Puccini | La bohème - Rodolfo

    Glyndebourne
    Oct 2022
    • Bekhzod Davronov looks and sounds sweet as Rodolfo – a light tenor with a real ring to the top notes.

    • Davronov, an outstanding Rodolfo, is boyishly ardent, caught off balance by the depth of his own feelings throughout, and utterly heartbreaking at the end. This is a fantastic voice, too, not massive, but wonderfully elegant, and easy in its upper registers.

    • As Rodolfo, the Uzbekistan tenor Bekhzod Davronov impressed from his very first utterance… His tenor is sweet, relaxed, and has a lovely Italianate ping. It soars effortlessly. He acted here with consummate awareness and presence.
