TAHANEE

ALUWIHARE

"Tahanee Aluwihare’s singing was impeccable. The role sat beautifully within her tessitura...the reflection pool was in every way her playground as she splashed about with her feet, and sometimes hands, dancing her gypsy dances and chasing after Escamillo like a bull in a ring."
