Breaking the Waves "stands among the best 21st-century American operas yet."
-David Shengold, Opera News
It is not easy to find new operas that command attention, tell their story lucidly, and create a powerful, permeating mood. Dark and daring, "Breaking the Waves" all this with sensitivity and style.
-Zachary Woolfe, The New York Times
"a powerful, fully realized, artistically significant piece...if you believe the only depressing art is bad art, Breaking the Waves is exhilarating."
- David Patrick Stearns, Philadelphia Inquirer
"The most startling and moving new American Opera in memory"
-Albert Innaurata, Parterre Box
Missy Mazzoli's Breaking the Waves is "savage, heartbreaking, and thoroughly original"
- Heidi Waleson, Wall Street Journal
