Profile
Rodney Gilfry, a powerhouse baritone, gained fire in his voice through the opera in direct proportion to the character's consumption of "alcohol." Gilfry was athletic in the distorted actions the stage director Jossi Wieler puts him through, all over and around the desk and tables and Faust's bed, which is the center piece. (Review- Dr. Faust)
(Someone singing the part of) Papageno has to be a knowledgeable comedian with precise timing and physical agility. Warm-voiced baritone, Rodney Gilfry, had no trouble filling that bill and his interpretation had just the right mix of charm and sensuality, not to mention excellent German. - LA Opera
