When you watch this production, you go back centuries in time; you go behind closed doors and you go inside people's minds as they think, read and write. Then the powers of the voices of Ashley Galvani Bell and Anna Tonna capture you. It's a total success.

"A magnificent adaptation of an operatic masterpiece...From his stage setting, which encapsulates the very inner-workings of Elle’s erratic emotional compulsions, to his finely tuned awareness of Poulenc’s dense music as the main guide, Armendariz Diaz invites one to experience the opera’s main theme surrounding love and supports the understanding of the forms of love, as being equally as important as the purpose of love itself."

DON GIOVANNI IN NEW YORK
"Last night, Divaria Productions presented a fascinating exploration of how the extravagant lives of librettist Lorenzo da Ponte and singer Manuel Garcia influenced and were influenced by the opera Don Giovanni....Thanks to the diligent scholarship and astute writing of Andrew Bell, the scripted production ofDon Giovanni in New York left us with much to think about, as well as some memorable performances dancing around our brain"

LA DOLOROSA
"The performances were, in every case, first-rate. Soprano Ashley Bell has a fine full voice that is strong in the lower register and brilliant in the upper register...Soprano Amaya Arberas has a bright resonant instrument which she uses well....Tenor José Daniel Mojica has a sweet generous voice that is filled with sazón, the Spanish equivalent of the garlic in the voice of an Italian tenor...."
