REVIEWS

“Carlo Colombara, whom I first heard on Morandi’s Naxos recording of Verdi’s Requiem and was deeply impressed, is a bit woolly in the first act but comes into his own in the third where he cuts an imposing Alvise and sings the recitative and aria that open the act with dark steady tone”.
Göran Forsling, Music Web

“Carlo Colombara is a properly cold Alvise, his sound big and scary as he condemns [Laura] to death”.
Robert Levine, ClassicsToday.com

“Carlo Colombara est un Alvise à la voix chaude et incisive”.
Valéry Fleurquin, ResMusica

“Solider Bass Carlo Colombara”
Jochen Breiholz, Rondo
