Review:

Jeremy Scinocca played the hapless peasant, Nemorino, who is so desperate to be acknowledged by his love that he buys the “potion,” which is really only wine. This was Scinocca’s debut as Nemorino, and I believe, as his voice matures, that it is a harbinger of more to come. Scinocca’s lyric tenor voice had a good foundation in the middle register, but also had the intensity needed for high notes. Nowhere was this more evident than in his “Una furtiva lagrima.” This aria is so familiar that it can slip into being a redundant “best of” piece. Not so with Scinocca’s interpretation which contained lovely pianissimos and fortissimos and an ebb and flow of tempo. It was a showstopper, and the rapt silence of the audience was a tribute to Scinocca’s sensitive interpretation.

"Pace non trovo" is the first iteration of The Petrarch Project.  A digital arts project designed by me and supported by Manitoba Opera and their Digital Emerging Arts Program.  It combines contemporary dance and my performance of  Liszt's Petrarch Sonnets creating a new interpretation to these beautiful   songs.
