Reviews

His vocal acrobatics were comparable, in dexterity and virtuosity, to a guitar solo by Eddie Van Halen.

Hajek is developing into the quintessential Verdi/Puccini baritone with a majestic tone the minute he opens his mouth. In fact, his wonderful, warm but hearty sound is reminiscent of those so-called great meat and potatoes singers like Tito Gobbi, Cornel MacNeil and Sherrill Milnes, not to forget Canadian Louis Quilico. His is a voice of rich colour and imposing command

As Don Carlo, King of Spain, baritone Alexander Hajek proved he has the requisite rich sound, secure upper register and lyric legato vocal emission one expects of a Verdi baritone. His aria, “Oh de’verd’anni miei” elicited cheers from the audience, and was definitely one of the highlights of the afternoon
