Verdi La Traviata
Florida Grand Opera, MiamiNov 2023 - Dec 2023The Belarusian tenor Pavel Petrov made an auspicious FGO debut as Alfredo Germont. His lyric tenor can scale down to the most dulcet pianissimos but his top projects strength and exuberance. In the duets “Un di, felici” and “Parigi o cara,” his timbre was pure velvet; yet for Alfredo’s denunciation of Violetta in the gambling scene (when he feels she has betrayed him), Petrov summoned power and declamatory venom. Petrov and López’s voices blended with subtlety, their nuanced dynamics bringing extra musicality to strong vocal performances.

Pavel Petrov’s Alfredo Germont was equally remarkable, his voice resonating with raw emotion and sincerity. This is a performance not to be missed—a timeless classic brought to life by a stellar cast and an exceptional creative team.
