Minnesota Opera – Maria Padilla
“The important role of Ines, Maria's sister, was sung by Karin Wolverton, a young soprano to watch. She showed a lovely warm tone, easy agility and winning musicality. Her Act II duet with Maria, "A figlia incauta" was exquisitely sung.” -Opera News
“Her Act II duet with the excellent Karin Wolverton (as her sister Ines), in which the two commiserate about their father who feels that Maria has dishonored the family by becoming Pedro's mistress, was especially affecting.” -The Wall Street Journal
“As Maria's sister, Inez, soprano Karin Wolverton showed that she, too, has an affinity for early 19th-century music and the flexibility to sing it well. She excelled in the above mentioned duet with Maria. Raymond Ayers, Theodore Chletsos, Seth Keeton and Anna Jablonski were strong interpreters of the smaller parts and each of them added measurably to the value of the performance.” - operajaponica.org
“Karin Wolverton brought a crystalline, agile soprano to Ines, the seconda donna role.” -Gay City News
“This duet, a popular concert piece in the nineteenth century, is evocative and the singing by Wolverton and Harris is both supple and sure.” -Aisle Say Twin Cities

“Soprano Karin Wolverton's Antonia, whose character's illness is made worse by her singing, was some of the best singing of the evening.”
