Narration as led by Evangelist Jon (sic) Longmuir was an exciting and well coloured trajectory, with solid high register work and perfect linking-text tone... Longmuir gave a memorable performance.

"As evangelist and tenor soloist, John Longmuir moved effortlessly between fiery coloratura and reflective recitative...Ich will nur dir zu Ehren leben was equally compelling, its lively, foot-tapping dialogue by Fiona and Leone Ziegler matched by Longmuir’s intense coloratura...The trio aria was exquisitely shaped: Porter’s and Longmuir’s restless lines were soothed by Fraser’s consoling presence, and Fiona Ziegler’s brisé leaps and delicate ornamentation were executed with great finesse and keen stylistic sensitivity."
Limelight Magazine

"The recitatives were shaped with clarity and intent, John Longmuir’s tenor Evangelist declarative and clear, guiding the narrative without fuss."
Classikon.com

"Tenor John Longmuir, who took the narrative role of the Evangelist, brought a sense of drama and robust strength to the part, opening out splendidly in Part VI, without making the role operatic...A highlight of the entire concert was the intimate musical interaction of the aria Terzetto Ach, wenn wird die Zeit erscheinen. Here Longmuir and Porter created brightly edged excitement..."

"Rossini’s music is joyously melodious... it provides the perfect showcase for exceptional opera singers; the music is vocally demanding, and finely honed acting skills are required for maximum comic effect... both John Longmuir (Count Almaviva) and Simon Meadows (Figaro) are renowned for their vocal power... A veteran of the role, John Longmuir was also an admirable Almaviva, the many coloratura passages cleanly articulated and his voice always well-projected." - Classic Melbourne

Thank you to the entire cast and crew who have made this show so special.
