| Opera de Tenerife – Fuenteovejuna - LAURENCIA |
| The solo singers were also very adequate, both vocally and dramatically, with Maria Miró‘s stellar performance as Laurencia standing out. A soprano of great dramatic vein, with power and vocal mastery, she managed to exemplarily reflect the vicissitudes of the character. |

|
| The soprano María Miró offered an excellent performance of Laurencia, a character who, bloodied and inflamed by anger at being raped, confronts her countrymen, reproaches them and demands revenge. This is the core of the work: without this convincing scene, the story would not make sense. |

| Teatro Real Madrid Götterdämmerung – WELLGUNDE |
| The last act was the best and as for Heras-Casado’s direction, with a scene of the Rheinmaidens (magnificent the three singers) of appropiate and accomplished lyrism (…) A wonderful trio of Rheinmaidens stood out, formed by Elisabeth Bailey, María Miró and Marina Pinchuk, who showed an spotless blend, correct emission and good singing concept, as well as an impeccable stage performance. |

| Teatro Real/ Teatro Espanol – Transíto – CRUZ |
| Starting with the Cruz of María Miró, mater dolorosa, strong in appearance, even harsh, but who carries within her the suffering of the abandoned, while being the one who must, moreover, watch over her son. The powerful voice with full-bodied timbre perfectly embraces the whole range of feelings, while the actress is impressively accurate. |
| Toute la culture (09.06.21), Paul Fourier
|
| >María Miró, unpolluted in black in her eternal widowhood, has to endow her character with pain and dignity and it seemed to me the most appropriate voice of the night: strong, without fuss, endowing the role with the necessary dignity. Very well. |
| Platea Magazine (01.06.21), Enrique Bert
|
| María Miró supported by her creamy and attractive soprano timbre – the highest quality voice of the five singers (…) – composed a suffering Cross, which is torn between suffering, jealousy and reproaches towards a husband, who still loves... |
| Cadalario (01-06.21), Raúl Chamorro
|
| María Miró shows the highest dramatic side of the action with excellent vocal resources and a very measured histrionic dimension. |
| Scherzo (31.05.21), Santiago Martín Bermúdez
|
| (…) As for the soprano María Miró, in the role of Cruz, she creates a splendid vocal figure from a backpack of pain and endurance. |
| El País (30.05.21), Jorge Fernández Guerra
|
| The cast is homogeneous and convincing in its two facets, vocal and acting, and in both we believe that the Cruz of María Miró stands out. |
