“Washington Opera, with Maki Mori”

“Soprano Maki Mori played a charming Adele in the Washington Opera’s final presentation of Johan Strauss Jr.’s “Die Fledermaus”

“Maintaining a fluid, flutelike voice, Mori comically cried, moped and skipped about the stage like a teenager during the first act, when her character’s request for the night off is refused then finally granted.”

“Mori’s high notes blossomed effortlessly throughout the evening, her coloratura especially fitting for her portrayal of Adele disguised as an actress in the second act.”

“Mori had a convincing stage presence with natural charismatic energy”
