"The role of Georgio Germont was ably portrayed by Sarasota Opera veteran Marc Nisticò, who is always an audience favorite. His voice. . . was perfect for the role of Alfredo’s father, and his subtle transition from antagonism to sympathy when he convinced Violetta to leave Alfredo was a highlight of the evening. His aria, “Di Provenza il mar” was beautifully sung, as well as were both verses of the cabaletta, which is often omitted."

"Rounding out our leading roles is Marco Nistico as Giorgio Germont. He is a company favorite and does a fine job with the grand duet between Germont and Violetta that makes up a big piece of Act II, Scene I. After that, he delivers a fine "Di Provenza," one of Verdi's more popular baritone arias." - Talkin' Broadway
