REVIEWS
“Carlo Colombara sings Ferrando's music with energy and round tone”
Robert Levine, Classic Today
“Carlo Colombara acquit himself admirably in his part. [He] has an imposing, dark voice and does all right until he, like other Ferrandos, can’t quite handle the final few pages of the scene, which Verdi, unfortunately, has marked “Allegro assai agitato”.
James Miller, FANFARE
“Carlo Colombara [Ferrando] is one of the most interesting basses. He starts the opera as to the manner born, few better on disc”
Gramophone
“Auch Carlo Colombara weiß als Ferrando, vor allem stimmlich zu überzeugen. Sein voluminöser Bass erklingt durchdringend über dem Orchester, auch wenn es gelegentliche Abstimmungsprobleme zwischen Sänger und Orchester zu bemerken gibt”.
