Lucía is today one of the prominent female talents in Spanish music. She is also an excellent communicator — she displayed expansive gestures and, without sparing any energy while conducting, managed to convey and connect with both the musicians and the audience.

Diario de Jerez

Lucía Marín demonstrates a deep knowledge of the Spanish repertoire, but her work on the podium also reveals great affinity, affection, and respect for it. Her expression is precise, refined, and rich in emotion. Isn’t that magic? She conveys clear feelings and pure ideas.

Ritmo

Lucía Marín conducted the Orquesta Sinfónica Alma Mahler with a good dramatic pulse. Juan Durán's music is brilliant and descriptive, perhaps a bit excessively so in the murder scene, but very capable of conveying the different feelings that emerge in this story. And Marín knew how to convey them; one couldn't help but be moved in the final scene.

Platea Magazine

The Sinfónica Alma Mahler mastered a composition that uses solutions of great expressive value (the use of the winds, that piano reminiscent of Britten's The Turn of the Screw, or the way the strings and percussion suggest Aurora's madness) under the baton of Lucía Marín, who excels at bringing out the score's small details while always achieving a successful balance between the pit and the stage.

The conductor Lucía Marín conducts the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra in a brisk performance that is expressive, if somewhat detached, especially in the recitatives.

ARTS HUB AUSTRALIA

Conductor Lucía Marín was another of the night's great triumphs. Durán's moving score found an excellent partner in the conductor. She navigated the opera in continuous collaboration between the chamber group and the singers. Marín successfully designed the different atmospheres and set the pace for the various actions and emotions unfolding on stage. Her chamber ensemble performed flawlessly and precisely. There were great moments where the sound was vigorous and suffocating, creating extremely oppressive or intensely lyrical atmospheres.

Diario de Pontevedra

Lucía Marín's baton conquers Santander with an absolute ode to lyric poetry. The Spanish conductor triumphs with the Cantabrian Symphony Orchestra in the new production of Nuria Castejón's 'La verbena de la paloma'. The conductor enjoyed as a clam leading a precise and disciplined Orquesta Sinfónica del Cantábrico in the triumphant premiere of the new production. Lucía Marín conducted masterfully and demonstrated her enormous ability to lead the orchestra in this demanding production.

El Nuevo Observador

The Adelaide Symphony, under the baton of Spanish conductor Lucía Marin in her Australian debut, rises firmly to the occasion, providing a taut and musically appropriate base on which this excellent ensemble brings to life an exciting tale.

LIMELIGHT – ARTS

The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of acclaimed Spanish conductor Lucía Marín, provides a rich and nuanced musical backdrop. The music they produce is quite simply heavenly

ON YOUR MARKUS

From the first ominous kettle drums to the final note they were vital, alive and sensitive to the action of the opera. Lucia Marin’s conducting impeccable. Her understanding of the level of energy required for each scene was copybook and she is a conductor who understands tempo – heaven

GLAM ADELAIDE

The orchestral score does tend to take a secondary role, but Spanish conductor Lucía Marín directs the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra with superbly judged tempos and authority. Their playing is precise and polished

IN DAILY

Lucía Marín, who debuted this season with the Bilbao Opera. With great clarity of movement and tremendous solidarity with the debuting tenor, whom she supported at all times, she renounced her personal brilliance in favor of the voices. Impeccable in the concertantes and in the brief interventions of the Bilbao Opera Choir, Marín faced a very risky performance—with a last-minute substitution—that he intelligently knew how to resolve, achieving a musical and vocal result that was generally more than notable. To mark, her dynamic and intense direction in Konstanze's aria 'Martern aller Arten', from the second act.

Pro Opera

The Andalusian conductor Lucía Marín, preceded by solid fame, led the Euskadiko Orkestra with kid gloves from the colorful brief overture. Always tempering the sound volumes adapted to the characteristics of the voices singing on stage, the conductor gave a very well reading of the score
