“Karen Cargill compellingly charted Klytämnestra’s breakdown, snarling and sneering without ever compromising vocal beauty.”

“Yet all were upstaged by Karen Cargill’s commanding Clytemnestra, so hair-raising in the nightmare scene that it’s hard to believe this was her role debut.”

“Her performance was matched by Karen Cargill as Klytaemnestra, which was equally astonishing because of her late replacement for Nina Stemme. Her portrayal was magnificent, vocally and in acting. It was amazing that this was her first performance in this role.”
