REVIEWS

“An outstanding Junius from Australian Simon Lobelson...”
Junius: The Rape of Lucretia / BBIOS / Opera Now

“Simon Lobelson’s warm, centered baritone thrilling threw off the frenzied plaints of the Grandfather Clock, and gave a seductive edge to his sinuous feline Lothario.”
L’Horloge – Le Chat / L’enfant et les sortileges / EOC - Greece / Opera

"…the sparkling quartet of thesps, Victoria Joyce, Alison Kettlewell, Hubert Francis and Simon Lobelson.”
Quinault: Adriana Lecouvreur / Chelsea Opera Group / Opera

“Pinchgut Opera play to the gallery more in matters of theatrical impact…Such is the case with the Drunken Poet’s scene, which is a brilliant affair (a testament to bass Simon Lobelson’s deft, communicative skills.)”
The Fairy Queen / ABC Classics / GRAMOPHONE

"Simon Lobelson (Falke) fielded beautifully rounded tone and phrased ‘Brüderlein’ extremely elegantly."
Dr Falke: Die Fledermaus / BBIOS / Opera

“Better yet was Simon Lobelson’s Dr Falke: a classy performance, his baritone finessed and honed (like a young Gidon Saks) – and a dab hand as an actor.”
Dr Falke: Die Fledermaus / BBIOS / Opera Now

“The excellent Australian-born baritone Simon Lobelson was the soloist in the Stanford work…It takes a lot of power and confidence to front several hundred performers but Lobelson was well equipped.”
Stanford: Songs of the Fleet / Aberdeen Choral Society / Aberdeen Press and Journal
