Anastasiya Taratorkina as Waldvogel impressed with her fine, clear soprano tones

which gave the roll an ethereal quality. She was easy to understand and her soprano shone with a velvety colour that gave the audience a real treat. Her crystal-clear voice and precise articulation lent the Waldvogel an enchanting lightness and grace. Especially in the scenes in which she shows Siegfried the way, she created a fairy-tale atmosphere that offered a fascinating contrast to the dark and dramatic moments of the opera.
