Early Music Review said of his debut Wigmore concert with Ensemble Sonnerie in 1998: One of the finest concerts I have ever heard ... a singer to watch out for. Other highlights include a televised production of Bach's St. Matthew Passion conducted by Jonathan Miller, in which he played Judas, an acclaimed performance of Winterreise with Julius Drake in Leamington Hastings, Die Schöne Müllerin last summer at St. John's Smith Square, and in the same venue the Good Friday St John Passion, conducted by Stephen Layton, broadcast on Radio Three.
