Press Reviews:

" Nonostante le carenze dell’opera sul piano musicale, quello fornito dal
complessi del Teatro dell’Opera di Varna e stato uno spettacolo eccellente,
a la riuscita del quale hanno dato tutti, dal direttore Georges Sanev all’ultima
delle ballerine di fila, un contributo notevole. Sanev ha colto con precisione
 il meglio della partitura – ricca per altro di intelligenti riletture di melodie "
Loris Azzaroni – Italy

" La orquestra – titular del Gran Teatro National de Bulgaria – combio a
anoche del director. Y se noto, desde luego. Georgi Sanev es hombre temperamentalmente, de gran vivcidad en muchos momentos, un tanto espectacular… Pero es, tambien, und excelente director. Y se si se noto el
combio es porque la orquestra es tambien excelente y sabe plegarseperfectamente a toda close de exigencias "
