The Coronation of Poppea at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées

19 December 2024

"Rarely has a fallen empress been so well defended on stage, first by the intelligence of the text and the quality of the articulation, by the depth of the timbre and its harmonic richness, by the fluidity of her breath and the precision of her focus, and finally, and above all by her musicality at the surface of the skin. Victoire Bunel embodies a dignified, noble, deeply desperate and terribly moving Octavie."

"The role of Mélisande seems made for Victoire Bunel. The fragile, mysterious woman of the first encounter with Golaud will develop into a real character through the trials and tribulations; the support of the voice contributes to this, as does the acting. The first part is diaphanous, ethereal, marked by a superb fluidity of register and particularly expressive vocal inflections; this purity nonetheless conveys all the affects of the role, which the actress literally lives. The death scene is of obvious beauty.

"Victoire Bunel and Marc Mauillon gave an amazingly accurate performance this evening. She is a complex Mélisande, wild and fatal, distant and loving at the same time. The voice is solid, full of harmonics that enrich the discourse."
