| His tenor is not overpowering, but it is large, secure and beautifully textured -- the high notes fresh and burnished, the lower range sweet but substantial. His singing encompassed everything from forceful heroism to the most fluid lyricism; the Act 1 aria, "Dies Bildniss," displayed a command of legato phrasing second to none.
And Castronovo is a vibrant onstage presence as well, combining dramatic subtlety with sheer charisma. As a singing actor, he accomplished the rare feat of making Tamino seem like an impassioned, thoughtful protagonist rather than simply a handsome Boy Scout./ Review |

| Piotr Beczala has just the right kind of tenor voice for Tamino � strong, secure, sweet, and infused with heartfelt emotion. From his first gorgeous outpouring of love, as he gazed at Pamina�s picture (�Dies Bildnis ist bezaubernd sch�n / This portrait is bewitchingly beautiful�), you knew he was the man for the job./ SFCV |
