""(The soloists) were led by Andrew Greenan's commanding Gurnemanz, who quickly brought focus to Act 1 in a beautifully measured and tireless account of his monologue and had the resources and imagination for all the rapture of Act 3. Greenan was impressive enough as Saffron Opera's Sachs and Wotan, and his Gurnemanz was on even higher form."
"
Peter Reed, Opera Magazine
"“This opera calls for a group of exceptional baritone and bass voices, and this cast really delivered. Andrew Greenan was suitably authoritative as Gurnemanz, with plenty of power and stamina for the role, and also the variety of tone and delivery to maintain interest across the long monologues.”"
Gavin Dixon, The Arts Desk
"“Andrew Greenan’s Gurnemanz was warmly sung and his face expressed touching sincerity. His whole narration was dramatically riveting.... Act III became the crown of the work, with a magical Good Friday flowering after many moments of solemn exultation, most notably Gurnemanz’s recognition of the Holy Lance, and Andrew Greenan saving his greatest vocal blossoming for ‘O Gnade! Hoechstes Heil’.”
"
