Veronica Granatiero’s Oscar is also initially influenced by overly-pompous orchestration, but her great lyric soprano skills have the chance to emerge during the opera. Very effective rendition of “Saper vorreste”, which – thanks to the androgynous look and the tragic nuance given to the ballad by the great singer – achieves a suggestive atmosphere that recalls Berlin in the 1920s.
Veronica Granatiero makes an outstanding Oscar, which is stylistically and vocally one of the best ever.
