Reviews & Press
Gounod, C. - Faust - Faust
The COC has cast a winning duo of young Chinese singers making their Canadian debuts in the lead roles. Tenor Long Long (not to be confused with the famed pianist Lang Lang) is a natural Faust, with a golden sound that carries even in pianissimo. His versatile range soars from a deep baritone to glorious high Bs and Cs. His “Salut demeure chaste et pure” is a fine showcase of his nimble instrument. Also an expressive actor, his displays of despair, fervent love and grief are convincing.

Thankfully, the COC has assembled a superb cast. Tenor Long, who earlier this year won the Maria Callas Debut Artist of the Year award by the Dallas Opera after singing another Gounod role, exudes both passionate ardour and philosophical wonder as the title character.

Long Long as Faust was very effective vocally, hitting all the important high notes and especially sympathetic in that opening scene when he’s the old man on the verge of suicide. For me this was one of the best scenes and got us off to a great start.

Verdi - Traviata - Alfredo Germont
El Teatre Principal de Palma ha tancat la temporada operística amb La Traviata. L’Alfredo Germont del tenor xinès Long Long, els comprimaris i els cossos estables del Teatre signen la part més destacada d’aquesta producció.… L’Alfredo del tenor xinès Long Long fou el millor de la vetllada. Una troballa grata, sorprenent pel seu timbre atractívol —amb el cos necessari—, també per una dicció italiana di tutto rispetto, però, sobretot, per un fraseig expressiu amb detalls enlluernadors, a la mediterrània manera.

"La traviata": An exuberant dramatic and ensemble work
Long Long (Alfredo) is an exceptional singer, and his performance as Alfredo in La Traviata was a delight for viewers at the premiere performance...Owner of a great coloratura, his voice has a natural facility to extend into the highest notes and endow them with pleasant ornamentations or flourishes. In addition, his sound power means that at times his timbre can be heard in the form and characteristics of a spinto lyrical tenor.

Verdi - Traviata - Alfredo Germont
El tenor chino Long Long entrega un Alfredo en toda su dimensión, su cuerda de lírico químicamente puro -con patente carácter de spinto- lo despliega con heroísmo y pasión. Long Long tiene un timbre brillante, diáfano, de gran volumen y sentido dramático, con el que aborda el dramatismo del enamorado y configura un amante aguerrido y sufriente.

Tchaikovsky - Iolanta - Count Vaudémont
Großartig auch Long Long als Vaudémont, er klingt als sei die Partei für ihn geschrieben, meistert mit Leichtigkeit alle Höhen, lässt edle Piani hören und kann in seine Stimme alle Emotionen des romantischen Liebhabers legen

Verdi - Rigoletto - Duke of Mantua
His tenor is overtone-rich and expressive with a gentle vibrato – in fact a voice one could happily listen to all day. Nearly as impressive is Long’s acting, which successfully trod the fine line of being seemingly sincere in his love to Gilda but without entirely hiding the Duke’s real nature.

Der zweite Bregenzer im Bunde ist das ehemalige hannoversche Ensemblemitglied Long Long, der als Herzog von Mantua an die Staatsoper Hannover zurückkehrt und eine wahre Glanzleistung abliefert. Mit seinem strahlenden Tenor erreicht er mühelos – nicht nur bei der berühmten Arie „La donna è mobile“ – kraftvolle Höhen, für die er vom Publikum mit vielen Bravo-Rufen gefeiert wird.

Mozart - Don Giovanni - Don Ottavio
Long Long als Don Ottavio sang die berühmte Arie nicht als der übliche chancenlose Fantast mit beschränktem Realitätsvermögen. Mit einem kraftvollen und stabilen Tenor gestaltete er die Rolle mit weit mehr Gewicht und glänzte noch mit dem überraschenden Einschub eines hohen Cs! Von ihm wird man in anspruchsvolleren Rollen noch sehr viel hören.

Puccini - La bohème - Rodolfo
It’s a glorious voice, even across all registers with an ideal combination of ardour and flexibility. He’s also a convincing actor, phrasing his big aria as if he were saying the words for the very first time. One could hear his potential to grow into bigger roles in Rodolfo’s big outbursts, where he filled the auditorium with golden sound.
