Reviews

These are examples of the work performed by Charles Humphries.

"Charles Humphries created one of the most outstanding vocal performances of the year for his portrayal of Ptolomeo in Herheim's production of Handel's Cesare."
Handel's Cesare / Herheim, Germany
Opernwelt Magazine, Germany

"...singers on Humphries level can do something extraordinary with the sound, it mixes with and stands out through the orchestral sound in a very special way both etheral and in it's smooth, pure beauty."
Recital with Concerto Copenhagen, Aarhus, Denmark

"Charles Humphries gave us a good run for our money; fine tone and he sang with excellent sense of drama. The audience gave unreserved and warm applause."

"All it needs is irresistible performers - such as the soprano Deborah York, floating a lovely pure line; or the countertenor Charles Humphries, eerily evoking the pathos of the defeated Darius."
Alexander's Feast / Lufthansa Baroque Festival
The Independent

"...Humphries, one of the finest of the young generation of countertenors, delivered the opening invocation eloquently in "Come Ye Sons of Art" and duetted exhuberantly with Chance in 'Sound the Trumpet'."

The Times

"...Humphries is gifted with not only a natural, beautiful voice, even throughout the compass, but also has the ability and resources to put it to expressive use."
Kontrabande / Wigmore Hall
The Times

"...although all the soloists were first class, it must be said that they were put in the shade by Charles Humphries who has a voice that justifies travelling to hear this oratorio."
