Reviews

  • Handel Hercules
    Velvety and full voice…he delivered all his arias with great polish.
    Barcelona Clássica
  • Marais Sémélé
    Remarkable.
    San Francisco Classical Voice
  • Messiah
    Ben Kazez was a forceful presence in ‘Why do the nations…’ as he navigated its treacherous vocal passages against furious tremolos in the strings.
