“In the role of Ottavia, soprano Jill Morgan Brenner was sensational. Her poignant farewell aria when banished by Nerone, 'Addio Roma, addio patria, addio amici,' was a vocal highlight of the opera.”

“Soprano Jill Morgan Brenner...made a moving case for Addison's conflicted emotional state. Her previous performance with OTU as Ottavia in "L'incoronazione di Poppea" was enthusiastically received, and her beautiful tone is well-supported by distinguished acting.”
