Musen Siziliens was performed by the orchestra and choir of the Teatro San Carlo di Napoli (excellently on piano Andrea Lucchesini and Pietro di Maria) under the direction of Marco Ozbič.

It was one of the most beautiful concerts I have heard recently.

"Edelmannm is sensitively accompanied by Marco Ozbič. The pianist knows how to emphasise the melodic pleasantness of the Donaudy songs without overdoing it, making them sound honest and unaffected. In the pieces by Respighi and Tosti, however, he fully exploits the psychological possibilities of the piano part. Respighi's 'La fine' can be cited as exemplary.”

"Supporting the vocal performance on piano is Marco Ozbič, a trained, educated pianist. He is also connected to the Vienna Boys' Choir, as Kapellmeister, now the second choir director at the Vienna State Opera, and thus well-versed in voices and their leadership. A companion, more than that, an equal partner on a parallel level.”

"Marco Ozbič, who led the orchestra of the National Opera, proved to be a masterful creator of imagery. This was particularly evident in the pieces from Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream. In the overture, the listener felt as if dancing fairies were brought to life.”

"Marco Ozbič has trimmed the manners of the opera choir and brought them to a homogenous sound. It sounded sometimes lyrically contemplative, sometimes densely thundering. 'Denn alles Fleisch es ist wie Gras' bloomed like a rose on a cliff, and the following scornful death in C major sounded earth-shattering.”

"The strongest impression on this evening was left by the choir, magnificently prepared by Marco Ozbic."
