— Opera Now

Eugene Onegin at Opera Holland Park

“His expressive timbre is both attractive and malleable, qualities that allowed his attitude towards Onegin From steadfast friend to emotionally wounded foe with convincing passion. At subsequent main-cast performances Roberts, who impressed in Gothic Opera’s La Nonne Sanglante last year, stepped in to sing Lensky. Deservedly so, for he is the epitome of an emerging talent. ”

— Mark Valencia, Opera Magazine

“Lensky was played by the excellent newcomer Jack Roberts at my performance. He made the most of his aria mourning the passage of his youth and the end of his friendship with Onegin. He certainly shows tremendous promise.”

— Christopher Walker, London News Online

“Jack Roberts brought a naivety and a sense of the clean-cut to Lensky. His vibrant voice has a lovely lyric line to it which made an ideal sound-world for this role. In the duel scene, Roberts gave a moving and very musical account of the aria, with a superb sense of line, and the crucial duet had a terrible poignancy to it.”

— Robert Hugill, Planet Hugill

— Greg Stewart, Theatre Weekly

“Wandering minstrel Nanki-Poo is played by Jack Roberts with a sweet high tenor voice and an even sweeter persona as the lovesick prince. His duets with Yum-Yum could not have been delivered with more sincerity”

— Rebecca Crankshaw, The Spy in the Stalls
