“Veteran bass-baritone Peter Strummer was a hysterically funny Bartolo who actually thought he could get his young ward to marry him. He sang his patter aria at lightening speed but the words were always intelligible.”
“Another pleasure was seeing acclaimed character bass-baritone, Peter Strummer in the title role, last heard three years ago as Dr. Bartolo during MO’s The Barber of Seville. After a few balance problems with the orchestra resolved during opening ‘Ah, un foco insolito,’ his booming voice and fearless buffo comedy always entertained.”

“The supporting roles are fantastic: Peter Strummer is a strong voiced, comedic Sacristan”
