Teatro Verdi di Trieste: il trionfo di Lucrezia Borgia
[..] Maestro Roberto Gianola’s interpretation is granitic, solid, impeccable. The conductor’s gesture guides orchestra and stage like a beacon through the search for a balance that is the difficulty of Belcanto: his taste and quality are such as to make the evening unforgettable. The Verdi Orchestra showed off a sound of rare beauty, rich in nuances.

Una splendida Lucrezia Borgia al Verdi
[..] This was undoubtedly due to the careful conducting of Maestro Roberto Gianola, whose personal career is already studded with successes all over the world, who in Trieste highlighted the dramatic sensitivity and compositional elegance of Donizetti’s score.

[..] As for the music, the Verdi orchestra always needs to warm up its winds, especially if they are the first to play, but then it recovers very well and offers a great performance, guided by the young but wise baton of Roberto Gianola who, in the notes on the booklet, explains the passage of witnesses between Rossini, Donizetti and Verdi, with great simplicity and clarity, demonstrating his great knowledge of the subject and the historical period.

[..] Conducting the Orchestra and Chorus of the Fondazione Teatro Lirico Giuseppe Verdi is Roberto Gianola, one of the youngest and most interesting conductors of the new generation, who gives this Donizetti dynamism and expressive force, giving the ensemble the right phonic impact.

Lucrezia Borgia al Verdi di Trieste: un Donizetti senza tempo
[..] The orchestra was conducted by Maestro Roberto Gianola, who is to be praised for his ability to faithfully propose Donizetti’s score and act as the glue between the pit and the stage. Beautiful and precious were the breaths and the expectations created in some moments that gave the score its dramatic impact.

[..] On the other hand, the concertati seemed to be conducted with good results and the accompaniment of the singers was well taken care of in the dynamics, never overpowering.
