“...Stuart Skelton's virile, baritonal Siegmund, with the most thrilling cries of 'Nothung' and 'Wälse' since the prime of James King”
Opera
"... the Australian tenor Stuart Skelton is, quite simply, one of the best Siegmunds on disc..."
The Age
"......A worthy Florestan in Stuart Skelton, absolutely stunning in his heartfelt cry of "Gott! Welch Dunkel hier", expressing a world of emotions in the beautifully sung first word."
St Louis Post-Dispatch
"Stuart Skelton's Siegmund, however, is something special: a clear, dark genuinely lyric heldentenor (if that's not an oxymoron) full of emotional vulnerability - perhaps the finest singer I've heard in this role since Ben Heppner or even James King......the voice is gorgeous."
Stereophile
" In the title role, tenor Stuart Skelton is about as good as Parsifal gets, with beautifully modulated phrasing, effortless power, crystal-clear diction and tender top notes. Add to that a tall, solid frame and you have a Wagnerian hero."
