What Critics Are Saying
“Round, delicate and with a delicious timbre, Mari Eriksmoen’s voice is a delight from start to finish!”
—Le Monde
“A further reason for the big musical success of this night is the young singer Simon Bode. A highly cultivated lyric tenor with exemplary pronunciation, he is not only the ideal cast vocally, but also has a strong and thrilling stage presence.”
—Darmstädter Echo
“[Matthew Rose] has one of the most lustrous, unforced bass-baritone voices in the business.”
—Philadelphia Inquirer
