  • Verdi - Aida

    Oper im Steinbruch
    Jul 2024
    • Besonders eindrucksvoll die „Radamès“-Rufe des ganz oben auf dem höchsten Punkt auftauchenden Oberpriesters Ramfis (Jongmin Park), wenn er den siegreichen Feldherrn verhört, der die Antwort auf alle Fragen verweigert und dann als Verräter zum Tod verurteilt wird.

    • Jongmin Parks „Ramphis“ ist ein wahrer Ohrenschmaus

    • Jongmin Park als Ramphis und Ivan Zinoviev als König geben ihren Partien ebenfalls jeweils die adäquate Statur.

    • Jongmin Park singt den Priester Ramfis mit edler, profunder Stimmfülle
