| Luk�cs, who made an undistinguished U.S. debut here as Tosca 10 years ago, sings with brassy sound and an ultra-wide vibrato that often makes pitch a matter of guesswork. Yet the most infuriating aspect of her performance came during those moments when her singing would suddenly and all-too-briefly snap into focus./ Review |

| Soprano Georgina Luk�cs, who made her U.S. opera debut here as Tosca, is Lady Macbeth. Her large and harsh voice happens to fit the role well; at times, she sounds on the edge of wrong notes, but she pulls back and makes her arias count./ Review |

| While the upper reaches of her voice displayed glimpses of a bright, silvery tone, the other registers were unfocused and her vibrato had a clearly apparent wobble. Luk�cs� voice does not seem inclined toward movement, so quicker passages and occasional decorated lines dragged behind the orchestra./ SFCV |
