Critical Acclaim: “Rijeka Belcanto 2006”

“Il secondo premio e il premio speciale dell'orchestra dell'Opera e andato invece alla cantante bulgara Elena Baramova (soprano) che si e presentata con il pezzo “Ben io t'invenni... anch'io dischiuso” tratto dal “Nabucco” di Giuseppe Verdi, offrendo un'interpretazione intensa ed espressiva. Dotata di una splendida e potente voce di timbro drammatico, la Baramova ha dimostrato un grande potenziale vocale e un'intensa concentrazione.”
