In "OPERA L"(USA):"Irina Bozhedomova has one of the most unusial
voices I've ever experienced in a theatre.The 31year old Bozhedomova
has a power that must be heard to believed.She was able to soar
seemingly with no effort whatsoever through TURANDOT'S high notes
with a free and open sound.It was never less than thrilling singing.
She made a dramatic impact and sounded glorious.
What more do you want in a TURANDOT?"

 In "THE BOSTON GLOBE"(USA):"Russian soprano lifts stellar'Turandot'.
Bozhedomova has an expressive theater face that showed us the
insecurity behind TURANDOT'S fearless facade;she is afraid of love.
And the soprano has a fascinating voice,not huge,but with a girlish
timbre she can shoot through a magnifying glass so that higt notes
burst into flame-the great LJUBA WELITSCH must have sounded
something like this in the theatre."
 
In "BOSTON PHOENIX"(USA):"The 32year old Russian soprano Irina
Bozhedomova has a firm,focused,sometimes even blazing voice which
the high tessitura of the title role demands.Her called to mind
at time someone like BIRGIT NILSSON".
