"...The other vivid star of the show was Terina Westmeyer...who made a Lady Billows, the moral beacon dominating Loxford society, of aptly over-the-top Wagnerian grandeur..." --Bruce-Michael Gelbert , [Q]OnStage.com 

 

 

"...Terina Westmeyer is one of those big beautiful girls with big beautiful voices, seemingly on the path to roles as a Verdi soprano. One doesn't often hear arias from Verdi's Attila sung during recitals; her "Santo di Patria" was delivered with a penetrating and powerful sound that set the concert hall vibrating. Admirable was her flexibility in the fioritura and her dramatic commitment that held the stage." --Meche Kroop, vocedimeche.net

 

 

"The singers were exceedingly well cast. Each singer created a character with a distinctive personality--the aristocratic and domineering Lady Billows (Terina Westmeyer) commanded the stage with a room-filling Wagnerian soprano and a walking stick...." --www.vocedimeche.net
