Hessischer Rundfunk Frankfurt

“John Paul White sang Don Basilio with a glorious basso sound and acted with rare comic insight.”

“Among others with major assignments (Phillip Marshall by Seymour Barab World Premiere) noteworthy dramatically and vocally was John Paul White.”

New York Times

“Magic Flute contains some of Mozart's noblest music for basso, and it isn't too often a singer can do it justice. John Paul White, besides making a majestic figure as Sarastro, manages the low sonorous line with no strain.”

Philadelphia Inquirer

“There was a stirring, healthy basso sound from John Paul White.”

San Francisco Examiner

“John Paul White's appearance as Commendatore was commanding. White possesses a thunderous bass voice which made Don Giovanni's arrogance seem even more outrageous in light of his greatly intimidating presence.

“Beethoven favored the male voices in this piece (Ninth Symphony/ and they accordingly, made the more striking impression. White, in particular, has a large voice that did full justice to the difficult writing.”
