Von edlem Glanz und gesanglichem Adel war Yulia Matochkinas Federica, die Herzogin von Ostheim
Yulia Matochkina als Gräfin Frederica ließ mit einer wunderbaren Mezzostimme aufhorchen.
Yulia Matochkina’s imposing Frederica brought the ideal mélange of metal and velvet in her timbre, authentically Italianate in style, and in fact slightly reminiscent of the young Fiorenza Cossotto - which is a compliment indeed.
Exceptionnelle Kundry de Yulia Matochkina avec Gergiev à Paris. La distribution vocale est (...) irréprochable, dominée par l’exceptionnelle prestation de Yulia Matochkina dans le rôle de Kundry. Tantôt guerrière, séductrice ou mystique, le timbre est rond, l’émission puissante sans vibrato, les aigus dardés, les graves abyssaux.
ottima anche la prestazione nei panni di Olga della connazionale Yulia Matochkina, autentica voce di contralto dalle note gravi potenti e tornite, gradevoli da ascoltare
Yulia Matochkina sang eine Brangäne von stimmschöner Eindringlichkeit und Poesie. Auf ihre sonore Tiefe schloss sich eine prächtige Mittellage an, die in eine leuchtende, glühende und ungemein klangschöne Höhe gipfelte.
