Review By Bill White ,Fanfare,November 2011

…Mattei easily matching the other two leads vocally and providing a lively and charismatic Rossinian barber…

…Mattei performs it very nicely, almost to the standards of the late Robert Merrill…Mattei’s rich lyric baritone voice may still be a bit light for most Verdi and even Puccini, but in the niche he has created and represented on this disc he is unsurpassed.

Mattei is accompanied very well on all selections by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic under the direction of Lawrence Renes…Highly recommended.



Review By David Shengold,Time Out New York,June 2011

Swedish baritone Peter Mattei, who dazzles audiences with his silken voice and towering, offbeat presence, here offers a genuinely impressive aria recital. One of the greatest Don Giovannis around, Mattei broke hearts in a completely different mode in last season’s From the House of the Dead at the Metropolitan Opera. This spring, Mattei scored another Met triumph as Yeletsky in Queen of Spades, and on this disc he knocks the prince’s irresistibly desperate you’re-just-not-that-into-me lament out of the park.
