“If there's justice in the opera world, we'll be hearing more from soprano Gianna Corbisiero, who poured riveting, Callas-like intensity into "L'altra Notte" of Arrigo Boito. In the "Brindisi" for Verdi's "La Traviata", she hinted she would make a fascinatingly complex Violetta ….
Don Rosenberg, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Oct. 2006

Carmen- Carmen- Orchestre Symphonique de la Francophonie:
“Gianna Corbisiero showed us with a flamboyant personality allied with a balanced, clear and historically in tuned voice what Carmen should be ….
Christophe Huss, Le Devoir, 01/08/2005

“Corbisiero sizzled as Carmen. She looked, acted, and sang Carmen-in a way that made this tragic but exciting role very real. Her lower register was particularly rich and the expression was beautiful.”
Jim Lowe, The Times Argus, 05/08/2005

La Boheme- Musetta- Opera de Montreal:
“A great asset to the performance was Gianna Corbisiero as the irrepressible Musetta. Her soaringly radiant voice and lively stage bearing in acts II and III were as striking as Her display of compassion in the fourth.”
Ilse Zadrozny, The Gazette, 02/02/2004

La Boheme- Mimi-Orchestre Symphonique de Longueil:
“…everything is done with such enthusiasm ; especially when there is a Gianna Corbisiero who gives lessons of incredible legato, unforgettable moments of inhabited space and time…”
Francois Tousignant, Le Devoir, 01/05/2004

Festival International du Domaine Forget:
“We must underline the intesnsity of Gianna Corbisiero: this woman has the sense of drama in her blood. Her L’altra notte, in Mefistofele of Boito…took our breath away. It reminded me of the final scene in LaTraviata, where she was also inhabited. No need to speak of Act I in La Boheme, in the skin of Mimi…equally touching et convincing.
Guy Marceau, La Presse de Montreal, 04/08/2003

Arthur Kaptainis, The Montreal Gazette, 09/12/2002

Opera Gala-Opera de Montreal:
“…I must mention the vocal quality of the very beautiful Gianna Corbisiero…”
Claude Gingras, La Presse de Montreal, 11/02/2000

La Traviata-Debut Series:
Violetta Valery
“Gianna revealed a soprano of size, range, and steady color. She also realized much of the emotion of the famous withering-away of Act III.”
Arthur Kaptainis, The Montreal Gazette, 18/09/95

In Chabrier’s Etoile: Princesse Laoula, Opera Francais de New York:
