September 2013
Brownlee doesn't have anything like the deceptive ease of Pavarotti, and he could use something more of Alfredo Kraus's poise and grace; but his considerable technical elegance and attractive tone make him a must-hear for bel canto admirers.
May 2013
Brownlee has a prodigious technique in florid music...One does not have to listen beyond the first two lines of Duparc's Chanson triste to realize that Brownlee commands a laudable legato...This is a recital of many delights, with both Brownlee and Burnside on top form.
