Sharmay Musacchio

“Contralto Sharmay Musacchio deployed impressive low notes as Swift (another one of the children) and as Dr. Overcast” - Spoleto Festival, USA
-Heidi Waleson, Wall Street Journal 5/24

“These were stock characters, played to the hilt. Yet, where Tabarro is virtually Grand Guignol tragedy, Puccini couldn’t help some comedy. This was La Frugola, the scavenger, and this was the absolutely delightful contralto Sharmay Musacchio, her voice, her movements, her wondrous paean to her cat all the perfect interval.” - Onsite Opera
-Harry Rolnick, Classical Music Network 5/23

"All the principals were excellent. . With pedestrians wandering around the perimeter at the pier, the comings and goings of La Frugola (the charming contralto Sharmay Musacchio) whose movements were fluid and subtle." - Onsite Opera
-George Grella, The New York Classical Review 5/23

"La Frugola, played with marvelous low voice and comic spirit by Sharmay Musacchio. The scene in which she distributes the many treasures of her dumpster diving served to lighten the atmosphere." - Onsite Opera
-Voce de meche, 5/23

Sharmay Musacchio was hilarious as La Frugola, singing an aria about her purring cat: “Hrun, Hrun, Hrun…” - Onsite Opera
