"Paul Curievici's ingratiating Gérard dominated the Barbican stage, seducing us with the warmth of his tenor voice and with the strange hold his character exerted on the action, which Curievici narrated beautifully."
The Times
"Paul Curievici moves effortlessly between speech and singing, watching and engagement; he holds the production’s different layers together."
The Independent
"One should mention a super turn from singer Paul Curievici as the narrator-cum-villain Gérard."
The Daily Telegraph
"British tenor Paul Curievici did his part very well as Melot, Marke's right hand man. Making this role interesting is no easy matter."
Information Dagbladet
"Strahlkräftig und selbstbewusst sang Paul Curievici mit schmetterndem Tenor den Grafen Elemer."
oper aktuell
"The tenor Curievici (as Graf Elemer) was particular noteworthy. Singing with confidence he developed his character skilfully as brash, self-centred and full of bravado. The voice is strong and flexible with an appealing tone."
Operawire
"A seguire, il Marchese di Paul Curievici, tenore di taglio baritonaleggiante con un bellissimo timbro e un’ottima presenza scenica che gli ha permesso di caratterizzare un personaggio ambiguo e cruciale nella costellazione del dramma."
GBOpera.it
"Buono nel complesso tutto il cast su cui si innalza per vocalità e interpretazione il marchese del tenore inglese Paul Curievici, che sfoggia una voce timbrata e sonora con un’interpretazione attoriale magnetica e convincente."
