On Her Lucia di Lammermoor

  • “Christine Lyons was a fascinating, dramatically compelling Lucia.... her voice filled with radiance and warmth.... Lyons expressed Lucia's escape from the horrors of her fate and actions with harrowing emotion, embellishing it with all the arrows in her bel canto quiver: trills, mordents, turns, runs and cadenzas that were no mere technical display but expressions of true emotion."

    -Seen and Heard International

  • "Lyons' soprano was as iridescent and exquisitely delicate as fine china, breathing high notes into existence.... she deployed floating coloratura that shimmered like sunlight on a stream."

    -Berkshire Eagle

  • "Soprano Christine Lyons inhabits Lucia in a career-making performance, combining raw passion with the beauty of tone demanded by the "bel canto" style.... Musical highlights include.….Lyons' note-perfect and emotionally shattering Act III mad scene, accompanied by the eerie sound of the rarely heard glass harmonica"

    -In the Spotlight

  • "Soprano Christine Lyons, playing Lucia, is as gifted at vocal ornamentation and birdlike trills as she is in her dramatic ability, especially during the mad scene.... strong, despite the trauma that she suffers: her grief, anger and determination can be heard in Lyons' breathtakingly expressive voice."
