Overview
Quinn Kelsey brings a fascinatingly varied programme along with his ‘fine, full and fluid baritone voice’ (Washington Post) to Wigmore Hall for his Rosenblatt Recital. The Hawaiian baritone is in demand all over the world, with recent seasons seeing him perform at the Metropolitan Opera, English National Opera and the Royal Opera House.
‘His boorish, tortured performance, together with a voice rich and secure from bottom to high top, is incomparable.’ Observer
