“Ailyn Pérez was a fabulous Micaëla, singing a heartfelt “Je dis que rien ne m’épouvante”, rich in tone, the highlight of the evening.”
Bachtrack
“Ailyn Pérez is splendid as the ingénue, Micaéla.”
Broadway World
“As Micaëla, Ailyn Pérez displayed an ample voice in both her duet with Don José, and especially in her aria “Je dis que rien ne m’épouvante.” There were flowing legatos and soaring high notes to spare in Pérez’s singing. She brought confidence and poise to her Micaëla in the duet with Don José and even intoned her sense of fear in the aria, even if there was no real context for the character’s emotions within the scenes themselves.”
Operawire
“Ailyn Perez gives a creamily sung and touchingly engaging Micaëla.”
