1. Recital - Reviews
… Albert was a spellbinder. He could convey a world of meaning with a glance or gesture, and he could make his
voice do nearly anything in any language or genre. He has few peers among recitalists: of those on the stage today,
only Marilyn Horne and Barbara Hendricks come to mind… His vocalism was uncanny. He could make his low notes
into hollow caverns or rich chocolate truffles; he could spin out a gold bar of a high note into a gossamer thread of
perfectly controlled sound,and he could pass imperceptibly from chest voice into falsetto and back again. Always in
complete control, he never let his performances degenerate into empty displays of singing or acting.

… a singer who gave the impression that he understood and cared deeply about every word. The music, whether
subtle or not, was invariably eloquent and on the mark.

Laurence Russell Albert revealed consise vocal talent, which he especially displayed in the broadness of the
passage between bass and baritone registers, which rings out powerfully and strikingly. Laurence Russell Albert
offered a very emotionally charged and entertaining performance. … appropriately, a lively and well deserved
applause rang out from an exceedingly delighted public.
