Reports
First reviews report that this second performance was even better than the first one. Martin Robert Botz, in his report published on Der Neue Merker, writes the following (english translation by Herbert):

"In the second performance of this run none of these not quite perfect notes (which were mentioned after the first performance) were to be noticed."

"It has to be mentioned, too, even if the enthusiasm for Anna is really great, it is not a noisy cheering, but rather coming from insinde, from the soul and heart."

"It was a memorable evening."

Our blog friend Anne-Laure attended also this perfomance and wrote a detailed act-by-act report in french on the forum Barjopera.
