In Review: Colaneri leads "La bohème" and "The Thieving Magpie" at the Glimmergl
"This was an unabashed production of romanticism, and, with the lush and unforgettable melodies of Puccini, conducted beautifully by Joseph Colaneri, it evoked the Belle Époque, seen mistily as if a youthful long ago." -DC Theatre Scene (La bohème)
"Conductor Joseph Colaneri took up the baton and launched with surety into the Gioachino Rossini overture, instantly grabbing the audience’s attention in a spritely march (with its nod to Napoleon) and then launching into its well-known second theme." -DC Theatre Scene (Thieving Magpie)
"Joseph Colaneri’s fleet conducting kept the numerous ensembles on track," -Wall Street Journal (The Thieving Magpie)
