Robert Levine says Dinara Aliva could be the Verdi soprano many have been waiting for:
“…here is an interesting new spinto who may grow into the Verdi soprano many of us have been waiting for. Azerbaijani Dinara Alieva has a grand sound–rich and full in the middle, and rock-solid, if edgy at the top. The repeated high Cs in “Sempre libera” are exciting and right on the money, and the interpolated E-flat at the end–well, let’s just say that just because a soprano owns a note like that does not mean she has to share it. … ‘Pace, pace mio Dio’ is a gem–it’s rare to hear it so thrillingly performed…Pay attention to her.” —Robert Levine, ClassicsToday
