Camille Zamora
L’Incoronazione di Poppea
Share
Houston Grand Opera

“Camille Zamora as Cupid (suspended mid-air, like Peter Pan) and as Ottavia’s page excelled in her rendition of seventeenth century style, as in Cupid’s Act II aria ‘O sciocchi, o frali.'”
– Opera News

“The performances certainly dazzle. Top to bottom – literally, from Amore (Camille Zamora) descending from the sky on wires, to Susan Graham (Poppea) and William Burden (Nerone) sinking into a trap while prone on a chaise lounge – the singing is excellent.”
– Houston Chronicle

“Houston Grand Opera’s publicity department speaks the truth: this is a dream team of singing actors; top to bottom, the best-cast production in recent memory. When Amore (a sprightly Camille Zamora) descends from the flies on wires as a dues ex machine, he’s a little blond sailor boy in Bermuda shorts and kneesocks.”
– Houston Chronicle

“Houston Grand Opera has assembled a near-dream cast for Claudio Monteverdi’s The Coronation of Poppea in the first American staging of a provocative, visually stunning production from Bologna… a trove of talent, most notably… soprano Camille Zamora as an irrepressible Page and a flying Amore.”
– The Express News
