Calaf in TURANDOT

ROYAL OPERA HOUSE

“Calaf was amply represented by Russell Thomas and his high-quality spinto tenor. If there were moments when more sheer power was required, he rose boldly and successfully to the ‘Anything you can sing, I can sing higher’ sequence prior to the riddles, while his impressive presence laid the physical foundations for a dramatic assumption characterized by confidence as well as determination.”
