Aida – New York 2023
“The size and clarity of George Gagnidze’s voice made for a particularly menacing Amonasro.”
“George Gagnidze’s menacing Amonasro was powerfully sung.”
Rick Perdian, New York Classical Review
“George Gagnidze, a veteran of this production, was the sure Amonasro… .”
John Rockwell, Opera UK
“Veteran George Gagnidze, has a colorful sizeable baritone and his standard issue Amonasro was a positive element. He knows his business, has the equipment and delivers.”
Eli Jacobson, Parterre Box
“Baritone George Gagnidze was a gritty Amonasro.”
The Opera Tattler
“George Gagnidze is sometimes described as ‘reliable’ but his Amonasro today was truly more than that, especially when he latched onto a vocal line, as in “Ma tu, re…” in the Triumphal Scene or – really impressively – at “Pensa che un popolo, vinto, straziato!” in the Nile Scene.”
