"Michael Slattery has a stellar career ahead of him.
It's a real joy to hear this traditional music...
Performed beautifully and idiomatically
by such a talented and serious artist."
"The real discovery of this recording has the personal stamp, the ardent intensity of a very young graduate of the Juilliard School: Michael Slattery... this tenor promises much."
OPERA FORUM

A major talent is developing here."

"The unrelenting beauty of Slattery's lyric tenor voice... heart-melting immediacy. The listener is transported into a state of tranquil contemplation by Slattery's sincere delivery."
"Recorded live at the gorgeously rebuilt Frauenkirche Dresden Solomon
features some of Handel's most magnificent choruses and orchestral
passages. Soloists are critical in this work… Nicholas McGegan's need
make no apologies, especially the Solomon of countertenor Tim Mead and
tenor Michael Slattery as Zadok, both of whom contribute some very
lovely singing."
"In every particular, from the suave musicianship of Nicholas McGegan's orchestra to the six vibrant and tender soloists to the joyous contributions from the Philharmonia Chorale, Atalanta spills over with delights. Everyone rises to the occasion here, with tenor Michael Slattery and baritone Philip Cutlip meriting special mention."
"Alessandro Scarlatti's glorious colours have never shone so brightly through the sepia tints of time than in this new live recording of his "Cecilian Vespers"... the recording is first-class... young tenor Michael Slattery and countertenor Ryland Angel skip through their parts leggiero ma con dignificato."
