More reviews have come in for the Salzburg Festival's Don Giovanni. Here are some quotes that highlight Layla's Donna Elvira: "Canadian soprano Layla Claire as Donna Elvira displayed an arresting stage presence coupled with a solid vocal technique. There was real fury in the B flats in “Ah, chi mi dice mai” and smoothly executed roulades in “Mi tradì”. The proceeding accompanied recitative was particularly moving."
