Giulio D’Alessio
(Rachele, Il Caso Mortara, Dicapo Opera 2010)
"Parmi les personnages secondaires, il faut signaler la Rachel de Christina Rohm, artiste à l’instrument
solide et convaincant à laquelle s’ajoute une grande expansivité musicale et une présence scénique
mesurée et élégante ; qualité affirmée principalement dans le bel interlude du second acte, libre adaptation
du Cantique des Cantiques."
"Among the secondary characters, a standout was the performance of Rachele by Christina Rohm,
an artist whose solid instrument convincingly added a great musical expansivity and a measured and
elegant stage presence; this was especially true of the beautiful interlude of the second act, a free
setting of the Song of Songs."

sang with clear tone and brilliance in the top"

Nino
Pantano
(Marguerite,
Faust, Regina Opera 2009)
Christina
Rohm was a splendid Marguerite whose luscious soprano was sparkling
in her “Jewel Song” and was radiant in her “Eternelle” love duet . . .
Rohm’s touching acting and
magnificent singing were great highlights of this performance. Rohm’s
singing in the final act . . . was indescribable in its impact,
beseechingly powerful, yet humbling and heartfelt.

James Cotter
(Cio Cio San, Madama Butterfly,
Opera Company of the Highlands 2008)
"Cio Cio San
was sung by soprano Christina
Rohm. She
perfectly captured the romance of the geisha . . . Rohm sang the hopeful aria "Un bel
di" about the day of her lover's promised return with exquisite
conviction and emotion, which she sustained to the tragic undoing of
all her dreams in the final act."
Westfield Leader /Fanwood Times, Thursday November 27, 2008
Carolyn Freundlich
(Hannah Galawari, The Merry Widow,
Pineda Lyric Opera 2008)
"The
characters enacted the plot with vigor . . and perfect vocal
inflections, making it a hilarious hit . . .all of whose voices were
fantastic. Christina Rohm,
playing the Merry Widow, showed off a strong soprano voice that could
reach extremely high pitches."

Joseph Jordan
(Nedda, I Pagliacci, Riverside Opera , May 2003)
"Pagliacci
brought together a splendid combination of singers and
musicians for the audience's delight. Soprano Christina Rohm (Nedda)
and (the other singers)
all demonstrated superb chemistry with each other and the orchestra."

John R. Murelle
(Soloist, Verismo Opera Scenes/Pagliacci, National Lyric Opera,
March 2003)
"The
first half of the
program was a concert of arias, duets and
ensembles from rarely performed verismo masterpieces . . . The soloists
(including) soprano, Christina Rohm, are all fine singers.
