Project Description
“…the Spanish tenor Airam Hernández convinces in the title role of Sardanapalo, for which he stepped in at short notice after Charles Castronovo falls ill. In just two days he learned this very demanding part from the situation and dramatic disposition. Similar to the “unsingable” Meyerbeer operas, the hero here must be able to demonstrate dramatic power and smash metallic highs, as well as being subtle and flexible enough for ornaments.”
Ingobert Waltenberger, Online Merker
“…Sauveur de l’opération, Airam Hernández a récemment chanté Alfredo à Toulouse (il y revient en septembre pour Pollione) et sera pour beaucoup la révélation de cet enregistrement, et les solides qualités de ce ténor devraient lui permettre une belle carrière.”
Laurent Bury, FORUMOPERA
“Airam Hernández sounds noble and ardent in the title role, wooing El-Khoury with fierce insistence and responding to Beleso with assertive dignity.”
Tim Ashley, Gramophone Magazine (UK)
“Canarian tenor Airam Hernández, singing with an open-throated ardour reminiscent of the young Pavarotti.”
Katherine Cooper, Presto Classical (UK)
“…tenor Airam Hernández is ardent as the king”
Erica Jeal, The Guardian (UK)
