--New York Times
"Thrilling...the Tenor of Tomorrow"
--The New Yorker
"Licitra...scored the most triumphant Met debut in recent memory..."
-- Newsday
"Whenever Licitra was onstage, he had the crowd in his pocket
with a full-bodied voice and an old-fashioned Italianate sense
of lyricism... The audience gave him a star-is-born caliber
ovation, which the Met accented still further by turning up
the house lights."
-- The Washington Post
