DANITA WEATHERSTONE

José’s Act I duet with Micaela, one of the high points of the opera.... Micaela, sung powerfully by Danita Weatherstone” - Helen musa cbr city news (Canberra)

 

“The forlorn character of Micaela, the would-be girlfriend of Don Jose was sung by local soprano Danita Weatherstone. Suffice to say of her quality that early next year she will be singing the lead role of Mimi in La Boheme for OA. Based on her excellent performance here I can’t wait to see her again.” - Victor Grymberg J-wire

"Comparative new commer Danita Weatherstone shone as Micaëla, especially in her Act 3 solo Je dis que rien ne m'epouvante. She possesses a pure tone, but with a blossom to the sound that made her both a sonic as well as a dramatic contrast to Carmen.” - David Larkin - backtrack 

 

“Danita Weatherstone shines as Micaëla. Her clear, silvery soprano exudes emotion, and her diction is immaculate.” - Jo Liston- Limelight 

 

“Danita Weatherstone’s plain-skirt, sensible-shoe Micaela was true voiced, though over-amplification robbed her arias of their touching tonal purity.” -Peter McCallum Sydney morning herald 

 

“ Danita Weatherstone is prim and coquettish in a frilled circle-skirt, bobbed hair with hair-band and demur manner, although when she sings she really knocks it out of the harbour.”
