Marisú Pavón, soprano

Marisú Pavón
soprano

"Pavón embodies the character of the actress whose passions for her craft, for Lorca, and for the ideals he represents blend in a heart-wrenching manner. Margarita's character embarks on a carousel of emotions, abruptly switching from the most piercing drama to bittersweet humor. To navigate it, the work demands a vocal range that Marisú confidently maintains. Her vocal quality complements her dramatic prowess: every verse she sings has a well-defined intention."

reviews

"Margarita Xirgu was portrayed by the soprano who sang the role in the first production of the work in the city, with extensive experience in this role and singing it with analogous excellence, Marisú Pavón. (...)
Pavón embodies the character of the actress whose passions for her craft, for Lorca, and for the ideals he represents blend in a heart-wrenching manner. Margarita's character embarks on a carousel of emotions, abruptly switching from the most piercing drama to bittersweet humor. To navigate it, the work demands a vocal range that Marisú confidently maintains. Her vocal quality complements her dramatic prowess: every verse she sings has a well-defined intention."

"Comfortable with a vocal style that alternates between the popular and the classical, with flamenco as a constant reference, Pavón creates a characterization of strong vocal and stage presence."
Ainadamar, São Paulo Municipal Theater
Joao Luiz Sampaio, Concerto Magazine, 09/2023


"However, it is our Marisú Pavón who stands out in the leading trio. Her dramatic expression and powerful voice recreate the misfortune of Euridice on her journey to the surface, when she tells Orfeo that she prefers death to living with him, viewing it as a betrayal that he does not look at her. Pavón expresses everything through her singing and delights in dancing towards the end with subtlety and substance."
Martin Wullich, Orfeo ed Euridice (2019)

"However, Marisú Pavón deserves a separate chapter in her portrayal of Despina, not only for her impeccable vocal work but also for her embodiment of the audacious character she never abandons and endows with a marked grotesque in her gestural expression. Clad in an apron with a red heart, visible garters, a headscarf, headdress, orange rubber gloves, and angel wings, she wields a broom or a menacing industrial vacuum cleaner and is capable of anything to achieve her goal. She is undoubtedly the most comical presence in this opera, which does not shy away from a nod to Don Giovanni when the harpsichord plays the notes of 'La ci darem la mano.'"
