Reviews

"Blake Denson was also very strong as Morales. A roaring baritone, almost with a little bass coloring in his voice. One is reminded of Falk Stuckmann. He is an officer, able to to wield power and chat with Micaela at the same time. That was a successful house debut, hopefully he has a great career ahead of him"
-Klassik begeistert

" Blake Denson, who in just the few words he spoke gave an indication of the commanding resonance and size of his voice. He gave an impressive account of Rodrigue's final aria, "Carlos scouts", from Verdi's Don Carlos."

"Blake Denson's Jake made the most of "A Woman is a Sometime Thing" thanks to his responsive, cultured baritone voice and its commanding upper register. It is an uncommonly rich instrument that was also shone in "It Takes a Long Pull to Get There""
