| The one glaringly weak member was Georgian bass Paata Burchuladze, whose sonorous but out-of-tune singing and laughably squishy diction robbed Sarastro of the required dignity or majesty./ Review |

| Sarastro also has wide-ranging arias, plumbing the depths of the bass voice. Georg Zeppenfeld has the range for the role. His voice is not really potent, but his singing of �In diesem heil�gen Hallen� (In these sacred halls) was eloquent. I don�t know why he and the Speaker (Philip Skinner in this performance) had to be made up with such gray faces. Somehow they looked more subhuman than superhuman./ SFCV |
