CRITICAL ACCLAIM


"...deep, abounding voice..." – St. Petersburg Examiner


Le nozze di Figaro – “Guidarelli played the quick-witted Figaro with just the right balance of levelheadedness and tenderness. His deep, abounding voice was appropriately masculine and vigorous.”

__________


"...stole nearly every scene..." – Taminophile


L’occasione fa il ladro – “Adelmo Guidarelli was charming as Parmenione’s Schleporello-like valet, Martino. A veteran comedy performer, Mr. Guidarelli stole nearly every scene he was in.”

__________


"...a flexible voice and tremendous gusto..." – Greenville News

La Cenerentola – “Adelmo Guidarelli brings a flexible voice and tremendous gusto to the role of the stepfather Don Magnifico.”

__________


"...a hysterically funny Don Magnifico..." – Broadway World


La Cenerentola – “A true buffo, Adelmo Guidarelli was a hysterically funny Don Magnifico whose great aria “Miei rampolli femminini” gave him a chance to play with his role and its fast patter. Thus, he showed the audience his excellent dramatic timing and various facets of Magnifico’s not-so-glorious character while singing fast and loud.”

__________


"...an attractive, full-bodied, powerhouse sound...” – The Virginia Gazette


Carmen – “As Morales/Zuniga, Adelmo Guidarelli delivered an attractive, full-bodied, powerhouse sound!.”
