"Eugenie Grunewald introduced a big, bright
mezzo-soprano that rode the high climaxes with
ease "
-Martin
Bernhieimer, The Los Angeles Times
"On November 17, Azucena
was sung by Eugenie Grunewald, who delights in
a solid technique and an almost seamless mezzo
with a brilliant extension. She is one of Those
rare performers who can reach off the stage and
grab the listener by the throat."

" Stepping
in for Zajick, the world's leading incarnation
of Verdi's Gypsy for three decades, is no easy
task, but [Eugenie] Grunewald showed herself
a mezzo on the move. Praised at home and in Europe
in this role and for her portrayals of such other
dark and demonic women as Amneris, Ulrica, and
Ortrud, the young American has a huge voice loaded
with grit and she knows how to project it with
both color and power."

"The big "Trovatore" news Saturday
was the rescue job by Eugenie Grunewald (an Austin
Lyric favorite), who replaced an indisposed performer
at the very last minute to play the gypsy hag
Azucena. Witnessing her confident, paint-peeling
performance, you'd have thought Grunewald had
rehearsed for weeks with the ensemble. "
