Reviews & Press
Wiener Staatsoper - Raskatov - Animal Farm - Benjamin
Für Karl Laquit, der in GerMANIA den »Rosa Riesen« verkörperte, jenen Serienmörder, der in den Wendejahren in Ostdeutschland wütete, hat Raskatov nicht nur den Esel Benjamin kompo niert, der – obwohl er die Propagandalügen durch schaut – sich aus allem herauszuhalten versucht und am Ende nicht verhindern kann, dass das Zugpferd Boxer, sein einziger Freund, an den Abdecker ver schachert wird. Laquits vier Oktaven umfassendes Register macht es möglich, dass er auch die Episoden figur der Pigetta übernimmt, jener jungen Schauspie lerin, die das Rendezvous mit Beria (alias »Squealer«) nicht überlebt.

Die enorme Wandlungsfähigkeit von Karl Laquit ist beachtlich, er ahmt mit seiner Tenorstimme virtuos die Laute des Esels Benjamin nach und tritt im roten Samtkleid als Miss-Piggy-Lookalike auf.

Dutch National Opera - Raskatov - Animal Farm - Benjamin
The tenor Karl Laquit was cast in two roles, as Pigetta and as Benjamin, the old and cynical donkey, which allowed him to show off his interpretive skills. His wide vocal range allowed him to successfully portray the two very different characters, in which he embraced the high tessitura of the female Pigetta with ease. His ability to incorporate the braying sound of a donkey was equally notable.
