  28 May 19 VERDI La Traviata
  Arena di Verona

  “Pavel Petrov ist ein eher leichter, lyrischer Alfredo, kein Draufgänger, schöner und beweglicher Tenor, den er geschmeidig führt und nicht forciert.”

  [Translated] “Pavel Petrov is a rather lighthearted, lyrical Alfredo, not a daredevil, beautiful and agile tenor, he leads smoothly and does not force.”
  Stefan Schmoe, Opera Musik Magazine, 19 July 2019

  “A conti fatti, la sua performance è stata la più precisa, intonata e musicale dello spettacolo…”

  [Translated] “On balance, his performance was the most precise, intoned and musical of the show…”
  Francesco Carletti, GB Opera, 25 June 2019

  14 May 19 MOZART Cosi fan Tutte
  Opera Australia

  “Interpreting the increasingly lovelorn Ferrando with dramatic and vocal sensitivity, he delivered some of opening night’s loveliest solo singing with his warm, confident tenor.”
  Patricia Maunder, Performing Arts Hub, 17 May 2019

  “Pavel Petrov’s first performance with Opera Australia (OA) was a feat worthy of a much more experienced singer. His stage persona is confident and stylish and his voice has a silvery edge which caught perfectly the intricacies of Mozart’s text.”
  Gregory Pritchard, Concerto Net, 15 May 2019

  23 Mar 19 DONIZETTI Lucia di Lammermoor
  Oper Graz

  “Er hat sich in den letzten Jahren im Ensemble kontinuierlich gesteigert und lässt mittlerweile keinen Zweifel mehr daran, warum er als einer der großen Nachwuchsstars der Branche gehandelt wird. Sein Tenor hat an Volumen gewonnen, dabei aber das schmelzende Timbre und die Feinheit des Klangs bewahrt und fließt scheinbar mühelos durch die Partie. Im Duett des ersten Akts verschmolzen die Stimmen von Durlovski und Petrov außerdem wunderschön und auch darstellerisch stimmte die Chemie.”

  [Translated] “He has steadily increased in the ensemble over the last few years and no longer has any doubts as to why he is considered to be one of the big up-and-coming stars of the industry. His tenor has gained in volume, but preserves the melting timbre and the fineness of the sound and flows effortlessly through the game. In the duet of the first act, the voices of Durlovski and Petrov also blended beautifully and the chemistry was also vivid.”
  Isabella Steppan, Bachtrack, 05 April 2019

  “Mehr als erfreulich ist es, dass die Oper Graz in ihrem Ensemble mit dem jungen Tenor Pavel Petrov einen ihr ebenbürtigen Edgardo hat. Er bringt sowohl den nötigen Schmelz, als auch die Kraft mit, um diesen tragischen Helden glaubhaft zu machen.”

  [Translated] “More than gratifying is the fact that the Graz Opera has in its ensemble with the young tenor Pavel Petrov an equal Edgardo. He brings both the necessary melting and the strength to make this tragic hero believable.”
  Michaela Reichart, Kronen Zeitung, 24 March 2019

  12 Nov 18 STRAUSS Salome
  Oper Graz

  “Abgerundet wurde der Abend durch die durchwegs gut besetzten kleinen Rollen; besonders Pavel Petrovs Narraboth, der einmal mehr mit seinem kultivierten Tenor aufhorchen ließ, sei an dieser Stelle erwähnt.”

  [Translated] “The evening was rounded off by the consistently well-occupied little roles; especially Pavel Petrov’s Narraboth, who once again made a point that his cultivated tenor should be mentioned here.”
  Isabella Steppan, Bachtrack, 12 November 2018
