Auch die Opernwelt berichtet über unseren "Tristan" in Darmstadt. Ich freue mich so sehr über die wunderbaren Worte über die Produktion und die musikalische Seite!"Zugeschnitten ist diese Produktion auf Magdalena Anna Hofmann, die mit ihrer stimmlichen, in allen Lagen ausgeglichenen Glut und akkuraten Diktion vom ersten Ton an alle Ohren und Augen auf sich zieht - der Komponist des «Tristan» würde sie wahrscheinlich zur «Wunschmaid» küren. Hofmann ist eine erfahrene Wagner-Sängerin und könnte jetzt als neue Isolden-Inkarnation die Weltbühnen erobern."Lotte Thaler, Opernwelt-The German magazine Opernwelt has also reviewed our "Tristan" in Darmstadt. I'm so happy about their wonderful words about the musical and scenic aspect!"This production is tailor-made for Magdalena Anna Hofmann, who, with her vocal glow, balanced across all registers, and impeccable diction, captivates every ear and eye from the very first note – the composer of Tristan would probably crown her as ‘Wunschmaid.’ Hofmann is an experienced Wagner singer and could now conquer the world stages as the new incarnation of Isolde."Lotte Thaler, Opernwelt ...

A curtain call snapshot from Sunday’s "Tristan und Isolde" at Staatstheater Darmstadt. Grateful for every single performance of this extraordinary masterpiece, and for the incredible warmth from the audience. Your support means so much!Here’s another review, this time from IOCO:"With her 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹, 𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹-𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲, Magdalena Anna Hofmann establishes herself as an Isolde for the world’s greatest stages. Already the first notes shine with a most pleasant vocal color. Her middle register is broad and supple, while the low register is well projected, too. She knows how to shape phrases and captivates with clear articulation. Outstanding are her big vocal lines across all registers, which sound effortless and radiant, beautiful in volume, dynamics, and intensity. Her ‘Mild und leise wie er lächelt…’ is of the highest caliber. With emotional passion and intensity, she surrenders to ‘höchste Lust’ [‘supreme bliss’], sending shivers down the spine. 𝗩𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴!(...)By the end, the applause swells into waves of ovations and a standing ovation for an extraordinary performance. Magdalena Anna Hofmann, in particular, is celebrated with great enthusiasm... .”Ingrid Freiberg, IOCOIOCO community 📷 O-PR ... See MoreSee Less

Today is the second performance of 𝑻𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏 𝒖𝒏𝒅 𝑰𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆 at the Staatstheater Darmstadt. Toi, toi, toi to all!🎶“Magdalena Anna Hofmann is 𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱-𝗯𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲. (...) Artistically, because she meets the elemental forces unleashed by Daniel Cohen and the Staatsorchester Darmstadt with apparent ease... . On the other hand, she lightens her dramatic soprano into delicate, spine-tingling tones. The way her final words, ‘unbewussthöchste Lust!’ dissolve into the orchestra sound is unprecedented, and to get ahead of myself, it brings the audience to their feet during curtain call.”Daniela Klotz, Opern.News -Heute ist die zweite Vorstellung von 𝑻𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏 𝒖𝒏𝒅 𝑰𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆 am Staatstheater Darmstadt! Toi, toi, toi! 🎶„Magdalena Anna Hofmann ist 𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗵𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗻𝘀-𝗜𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲. (…) Künstlerisch, weil sie mühelos und nur mit der einen oder anderen Überphrasierung den Gewalten begegnet, die Daniel Cohen mit dem Staatsorchester Darmstadt zu entfesseln vermag. Andererseits dämpft sie ihren hochdramatischen Sopran zu leisen Gänsehaut-Tönen. Wie ihre Schlussworte „unbewusst höchste Lust!“ im Orchesterklang verschweben, ist unerhört und reißt das Publikum, um das vorweg zu nehmen, beim Schlussapplaus förmlich von den Sitzen."Daniela Klotz, Opern.News ...
