Gallardo-Domâs is known for her Madama Butterfly and was featured in the heavily promoted new production of this work that opened the 2006/2007 season at the Metropolitan Opera and marked the beginning of Peter Gelb's tenure as General Manager of the Met.
According to her website [1] Archived 2019-06-16 at the Wayback Machine, she was personally chosen by the director, Anthony Minghella, for this role, having successfully performed it previously at the Royal Opera.
In 1993, the Hartford Courant praised her "radiant, melting performance as the frail seamstress Mimi" in the Puccini opera La bohème, predicting that she would have a "long and distinguished" career:[9] There is strength and fragility to her portrayal.
By dint of her unimpeachable musicality‚ the sheer beauty of her truly Italianate tone and her exemplary way with words‚ she makes every track on this generously filled recital an individual experience to treasure – and of how few singers can that be said?
In January 2020, Gallardo-Domâs was the president of the judging panel at "Laguna Mágica" Opera Festival in San Pedro de la Paz, Chile.
