The baritone is the star of the show as WNO tours Berlioz' rarely performed opera |

Beatrice and Benedict fails to build a head of steam |
22 Feb 12 / Telegraph |
The comic opera leaves a lot to be desired dramatically |
21 Feb 12 / The Stage |
Musically it was disappointing, the singing unexceptional |
21 Feb 12 / The Guardian |
Perverse but often delightful |
20 Feb 12 / Seen and Heard |
Berlioz's last opera glows but stutters in an uneven Cardiff revival |
