He's so wonderful. I'm planning an opera movie night with a friend and we are going to watch the Ciro in Babilonia production that he starred in alongside Ewa Podles. I'm super excited to watch a full production with him and the fact that's it's a rare Rossini Opera Seria makes it even better.
He sings very well. But something in his acting in this really bothers me. He seems to be acting as though he's in a tv show. Small and as if he is not singing. There's no facial or gestural response to the music and I can not imagine it would carry in a theatre. Sorry to be so critical as he really does sing well
