Nicolas Courjal : Pelléas et Mélisande – Dallas Civic Opera – Review

Nicolas Courjal was the very personification of Golaud, with a gruff, granular baritone and increasing physical menace. Dallas News

But it was Nicolas Courjal as Golaud that provided much of the dynamism of the production, bringing his resonant bass to bear on the character’s volatile, domineering and possessive nature as he is slowly consumed by jealousy over the attraction between Pelleas and Melisande and his growing fury at Melisande’s passive resistance to his control.
