| DONNA ELVIRA ~ DON GIOVANNI |
"The "Donnas" take revenge, the young Anna and experienced Elvira, this time from the United States, Alyson
Cambridge and Jennifer Rowley. Both are wonderful cannons of sound for the Mozart landscape, and also posses a
coolness in their voices, which is especially effective for the one-track mind role of Elvira, the goddess of vengence." -
Ito-Savo, July 3, 2011
"Alyson Cambridge made Donna Elvira both funny and sympathetic. Her mussed hair showed the distraction of the
character, while the slightly overdone gestures gave just the touch of humor the role requires. She sang decisively
throughout. Her "Mi tradì" was played as a confrontation between her desire for the Don and her repulsion of his faithless
ways. It was a highlight of vocal splendor and dramatic acting for Act II." -- Alan Montgomery, Opera News, November
2009
"the cast was uniformly top-notch... Cambridge used her elegant bearing to make Elvira visually riveting."-- Judith
Malafronte, Opera News, October 2006

| SUSANNA ~ LE NOZZE DI FIGARO |
Susanna was played by the stunning Alyson Cambridge [who] proved a natural comedienne with an abundant supply
of glances, gestures and expressions that conveyed Susanna's cleverness. No doubt a Countess in the making,
Cambridge’s rich soprano is destined for more than soubrette repertoire.” -- Stephanie Adrian, Opera News, July 2008
