Teresa Buchholz, mezzo-soprano
08.19.08 | Bard Music Festival, Arias from Prokofiev's Semyan Kotka and The Story of the Real Man
“Teresa Buchholz, a mezzo soprano, and Scott Williamson, a tenor, offered spirited accounts…”
Steve Smith, The New York Times
07.22.08 | Carmen, Summer Opera Theater Company
“Mezzo Teresa Buchholz was an outstanding Carmen, singing accurately and expressively while charging her character with a smoldering sexuality.”
T. L. Ponick, The Washington Times
07.22.08 | Carmen, Summer Opera Theater Company
“Teresa Buchholz, in her company debut, sang generally well, with a round, strong voice. Musically, she was the backbone of the cast.”
Anne Midgette, The Washington Post
07.22.08 | Carmen, Summer Opera Theater Company
"The primary virtue of Summer Opera's production was the singer in the title role, mezzo-soprano, Teresa Buchholz, who cut a seductive figure in the pretty, but very traditional costumes designed by John Lehmeyer. The voice has a chocolatey middle and bottom range, with powerful top notes that are noteworthy.....”
Charles T. Downey, IONARTS
05.13.06 | Pergolesi's "Stabat Mater", Berkshire Bach Society
"After intermission, with the smaller chorus and two female soloists in featured roles, the Stabat Mater performance ranged more freely through the changes in effect. The music sparked into life as commiseration through joy. Soprano Amy Justman and mezzo-soprano Teresa Buchholz sang affectingly as the soloists..."
Andrew L. Pincus, The Berkshire Eagle
04.06.06 | Cherubino, Duke Symphony
"One cast member who certainly lacked any inhibitions at all was Teresa Buchholz as Cherubino. She has a wonderful voice with both power and clear diction; and she bounced around the semi-stage, getting in everyone's way and messing up their plans like an untrained puppy."
Elizabeth and Joe Kahn, Classical Voice of North Carolina
06.25.05 | Perichole, Light Opera Oklahoma
"Buchholz was very good in the comic drinking song, and in what is perhaps the show's best known number, when Perichole recites a letter to her beloved, yet left behind, Piquillo."
James Watts, Tulsa World
11.23.04 | Carissimi's "Jepthe", Berkshire Bach Society
"...every syllable was clearly enunciated by Teresa Buchholz, who displayed agreeable strength in the alto message of the narrator, offering an even voice from top to bottom while negotiating the floridity with agreeable ease."
Richard Houdek, Berkshire Eagle
03.04.04 | Hindemith's "Das Nusch-Nuschi", American Symphony Orchestra
"Standouts in the enormous cast included...Ms. Dix and Teresa Buchholz as the First and Second Dancers, respectively."
Bruce Hodges, S & H International Opera Review
11.20.02 | Flora, Connecticut Grand Opera
"Mezzo-soprano Teresa Buchholz, who made a mark even in the small role of Curra in last season's "Forza", was not just the jovial party girl Flora Bervoix, but also a human being who cared for her ailing friend, Violetta. It's not in the score that Flora should visit Violetta in her last hours near dawn, but it was in de Blasis's staging. Buchholz handled the depth admirably."
Jerome R. Sehulster, Stamford Advocate
06.18.02 | Iolanthe, Light Opera Oklahoma
"And the cast, given some of Arthur Sullivan's best music to work with, turn in excellent performances. Buchholz does a marvelous job with the moving ballad 'He Loves'."
James Watts, Tulsa World
