| Act One, Scene 2: Una Voce Poco Fa |
| 1968*Teresa Berganza's belated entrance into the company came with a gorgeously scintillating Rosina in the centennial Barber. She looked as cute as your daughter�s best doll, she bathed the audience in creamy tone, she phrased aristocratically, she controlled dynamics perfectly, she floated the fioriture with ease, and she exhibited a lovability, which doesn�t come across on her Barber Recordings. |
| 1976*Barber brought von Stade�s sparkling, creamy-toned, subtly phrased Rosina, a genuinely starry performance, which had considerably more �lan than her rather diffident Cinderella. |
| 2006-Allyson McHardy (Rosina) displayed polished, velvety vocalism in her showcase aria "Contro un cor," and musical refinement in her choice of intricate embellishments./ Review |

 |
| 2003-Helene Schneiderman, who sang so well as Bradamante in last season's "Alcina," made a vivacious and delightful Rosina, combining vibrant tone, impeccable technical control and canny comic timing into a charming performance./ Review |
| 2003-No local review? BUT 2006-Joyce DiDonato is a young American mezzo soprano who has taken London by storm. She is appearing at the Royal Opera House as Rosina in Barber of Seville. DiDonato. "A complete knockout." NPR-Audio |
| 1935*Josephine Tumminia from San Francisco's Marina District made a successful, if unremarkable appearance as Rosina. |
