"Irish tenor Dean Power impressed with an extremely delicious voice. A singer with experience from opera houses in Munich, Zurich, Paris, plus the Glyndebourne and Wexford festivals, and this year making his debut at the Salzburg festival, he proved to be a sensitive performer of oratorios. His speech was captivating, not flashy."
