Voices from the Press

“Of course, in this opera Mozart frequently writes for Fiordiligi and Dorabella together, so their voices must mesh. And so it was, with the bright – glinting, even – soprano of Ida Falk Winland’s Fiordiligi working beautifully against the darker shades of Boulianne…. She certainly has the extended range demanded for ‘Come scoglio’ and can move from extreme top to extreme low end easily; she has the vocal virtuosity too for the runs.” – Così fan tutte/Glyndebourne Festival

Colin Clarke/Seen and Heard International – July 06 2021

“Ida Falk Winland was a superb Gilda in Rigoletto in Stockholm one year ago (almost to the day) but here, in a much more complex and all-embracing role, she triumphs in every respect. She has a magnetic radiance as the prima donna assoluta in the first act, and her concluding aria is masterly vocalised. In the second act she is vulnerable and sensitive but also courageous when responding to Germont’s less than gentlemanly assault, and in the Flora scene as well as in the last act she is fragile and helpless, evoking the audience’s compassion. Both vocally and scenically this was a magnificent achievement.” - La traviata/The Royal Swedish Opera

Göran Forsling/Seen and Heard International – November 23 2019

“Ida Falk Winland’s Susanna is by turns poised and elegant or quick and fiery. Her characterisation is of a confident young woman, the steelier half of the couple when opposite Mr Schwartz’s Figaro. Her voice is both nimble and expressive, perfect for the role. Her Act 4 aira “Deh vieni” was as smooth and sensual as silk.”

Niklas Smith/Seen and Heard International – November 03 2014
