“Sung and acted entirely in French, the opera turns out to be extraordinarily intense, with a bare and essential set design characterized by Christina Clar’s striking set designs, emotionally returning to us Paul Gauguin’s fascinating personality and dramatic artistic vicissitudes.”

“A chamber opera, stated the direction notes. Probably something more, that fascinated the audience, to a great extent made up by musicians and enthusiasts, thronging to the city limits in order to listen to piece on which Fabrizio Carlone has been working for three years.”
R.S. Corriere della Sera (of Veneto)15/10/2005

“Not an opera “on” Paul Gauguin, but almost an opera “with” Paul Gauguin, woven within his art, and his colours.”
