“D.N. in the title role as the singing freedom fighter with a stonking virtuoso tenor”.

Jakob Levinsen, Jyllands Posten 7/10/2011

“D.N. has the voice for the role of the troubador Manrico, the timbre and ping is exactly right for a Verdi tenor”.

Ole Staarup, Aarhus Stiftstidende, 9/10/2011

“What a sound! ..D.N's performance in the title role of the troubador Manrico, grew from strength to strength”.

Birthe Juul Mathiasen, Jydske Vestkysten, 8/10/2011

“D.N sings a secure tenor, producing perfectly placed, stylish and wonderfully effortless tones, exactly as one would expect from a minstrel”.

Jakob Wivel, Bœrsen, 14/10/2011
