'Soprano Alexandra Oomens… was superb; soaring with her pure clear voice, ravishing and delicate yet also revealing steely strength.'
The soprano’s [Oomens] dual roles – as the environmentally aware Dafne, who asks to be turned into a laurel tree to avoid the attentions of Apollo, and the vampish goddess Aurora – give full rein to Oomens’ acting skills, while her bright and even voice shows why she is a crowd favourite.
Alexandra Oomens’ Dafne a shining young woman of fortitude and bright intelligence. Oomens doubles up spectacularly as the super-sexy Aurora, easily seducing Procris’s husband Cefalo. For Dafne, Oomens takes a firm, single-minded approach to the music up until Dafne’s melting end, and for Aurora her delectable soprano takes on all manner of seductive colours.
