"While all deserve a toast for their performances,
Norah Long stands out for her balance of comic aplomb and strong singing." – St. Paul Pioneer Press, Rob Hubbard |
Norah Long really shines in the central role of Rosalinda, showing us a passionate woman
whose dignity is continually being subverted by her impulses. Long's Rosalinda is at war with herself.
She wants a fling with her former lover, Alfred, but she also wants to punish her husband, Eisenstein, for being a philanderer.
Long sang admirably, too, displaying agile top notes as well as the ideal chest tones for the Czardas.
– Michael Anthony, Minneapolis Star Tribune
