Fflur Wyn and Robin Blaze have been described as “first-rate” (The Telegraph) and “technically superb” (The Times) for their performances in Welsh National Opera’s production of Handel’s Orlando. Singing the roles of Dorinda and Medoro respectively, the following is a selection of some of the excellent reviews for both Fflur and Robin:
“Individually they were all first-rate:...Fflur Wyn and Rebecca Evans the elegantly twittering and lamenting ladies, Robin Blaze their second-string suitor.” – Rupert Christiansen, The Telegraph
“The effortless Robin Blaze made much of the character of Medoro…[and] a musical highlight was Evans and Blaze’s bittersweet trio with the luminous Fflur Wyn, superb as the young but wise, hopeful yet resigned Dorinda.” – Rebecca Franks, The Times
“Robin Blaze’s Medoro – the pure tone of his countertenor an excellent foil for Zazzo – is similarly poised. Meanwhile, Dorinda…is sung with great accomplishment by Fflur Wyn.” – Rian Evans, The Guardian
“Fflur Wyn is delightful as poor Dorinda…technically superb.” – Stephen Walsh, theartsdesk.com
