No references found | From the explosive and dramatic opening where the huge, intense and malleable voice of Lithuanian soprano Asmik Grigorian made its presence felt, there was simmering drama right through. But rather than give the protagonist''s role to a tenor (Britten''s lifelong commitment to writing for his partner Peter Pears), there is a significant transfer to soprano - the incisive and brilliantly intoned Lithuanian Asmik Grigorian.
