Conductor: Michael Harris

“Rory Dunne produced a nicely layered presentation of Giulietta’s father Capellio, in which he managed to successfully display the conflicting emotions he had for his daughter, even if ultimately he was hard and unforgiving. He sang convincingly with a strength and purpose which captured his character’s authority and single-mindedness. He has a pleasing bass-baritone which exhibits an attractive rumbling vibrato in the lower register, and produced an expressive performance in which he showed particular skill in delivering well-crafted passages of recitative.”

ALAN NEILSON, OPERAWIRE

“The male castings of Rory Dunne…spot on in all regards.”

DICK O’RIORDAN, SUNDAY BUSINESS POST

“Rory Dunne, as the village priest, brings a weight and sincerity that makes this far more than a character role.”

RICHARD BRATBY, GRAMOPHONE
