Dallas Opera scored a second major success of the season with a beautifully sung, opulently staged production of Verdi’s La TraviataFriday night at Winspear Opera House, with a penetrating musical performance made all the more fascinating by subtle and not-so-subtle visual amendments to the drama.
Vocally, Friday night’s performance was as nearly perfect a Traviata as one could hope for. As Violetta, Georgia Jarman possesses a noticeably intense vibrato. The soprano began with a fairly bright tone that warmed into a darker, richer timbre as the evening progressed; intentional or not, this gave a sense of deepening maturity on the part of the character that matched her progression from depressed debauchee to temporarily happy woman to dying victim.
