Debussy
Pelléas et Mélisande
Golaud
“As the jealous Golaud, Conrad was compelling. The high notes that signal outbreaks of violence were imposing. And Conrad created a complex characterization; this man hated his own dark urges, but was powerless to stop himself.”
--The Boston Globe

“Conrad himself sang Golaud. He seemed to have a new bite in his voice...especially in the early scenes. His sense of Golaud’s uncontrolled jealousy, his pain, his overt emotionalism, made a powerful contrast with Melisande’s impassivity.”
--The Boston Phoenix
