San Francisco Chronicle – Joshua Kosman

The New York Times – Anne Midgette
“[Anna Netrebko] is a dream—a virtuoso singer of endless versatility, smoldering presence and inimitable sound who happens to be fashion-model gorgeous.”
Town & Country – Robin Tabachnick
“Netrebko’s voice is evenly produced, effortless, sharp and clear…and is matched with a technique that loves every note precisely and fully in its proper length and dynamic range. Her pianissimos are thrilling, and her rapid passage work almost flawless.”
The Washington Post – Philip Kennicott

The Daily Telegraph – Peter Culshaw
“Netrebko…is the real deal, nurtured at Russia’s Kirov Opera and now in demand from Salzburg to Tokyo. From her delicate frame comes a voice of astonishing richness and power. She’s also a riveting actress … Netrebko’s blend of vocal splendor and dramatic intensity has evoked comparisons with Maria Callas.”
Time – Christopher Porterfield
“Looking as graceful as a gazelle and singing as sweetly as a bell struck with a surprising outburst of coloratura, Anna Netrebko…is at the tipping point of serious diva fame – the kind of fame that has people…comparing her with Callas, Sutherland, Tebaldi and other opera goddesses past. … She has that bel canto gift of singing like a windswept lark on a bright day, and an acting style combining the natural with the daring.”
NY Post – Clive Barnes
“Anna Netrebko has been hailed as the century’s most spectacular voice. With extraordinary beauty to match her natural-born talent…she’s commanding the spotlight on red carpets around the world…favoring glamorous dresses by Escada and Marc Jacobs that praise her curvy, feminine physique. Brava!”
Vogue – Alexandra Kotur
“The Julia Roberts of opera.”
The New York Times – Ben Sisario
“Netrebko...cannot give a performance that’s less than incandescent. Her bright lyric voice has more than a glint of metal in it, but she keeps it from ever turning harsh ... A natural actress blessed with sensational looks.”
