"Ron Li-Paz is excellent as the art collector"

Michael Kennedy
The Sunday Telegraph


"The cast was nigh perfect… Ron Li-Paz made Savory's cultural megalomania credible…"

George Hall
Opera News


"Ron Li-Paz did well with "West Wind" and gained an extra number in "Who am I"…He and Geeting field robust baritone sound: maybe the Howard Keel mould hasn't been broken after all."

Rodney Milnes
Opera


"…It features a gleeful procession of star tunrs from Loren Geeting as the bumbling barber, Ron Li-Paz as the bumptious collector and Christianne Tisdale as his sassy secretary…"

Alfred Hickling
The Guardian


"Ron Li-Paz lends moneyed authority to the role of Savory, velvety-toned in his poignant "West Wind."

Lynne Walker
The Independent


"A superb cast sing and act to the hilt...As Savory and his secretary Molly, Ron Li-Paz and Christianne Tisdale swap insults with brio."

David Blewitt
Opera Now


"Ron Li-Paz as Savory had a fine old-fashioned baritone -- think Ezio Pinza in South Pacific…"

HE Elsom
Concertonet.com


"Ron Li-Paz, Loren Geeting and Christianne Tisdale all boast operatic as well as musical credits; but they hurl themselves into the set pieces of Tim Albery's riotous production with all the brio of veteran singer-hoofers."

Anthony Holden
The Observer


"It develops round the delivery of a statue of a shapely Venus dubiously acquired by the art connoisseur and collector Whitelaw Savory , sung by the Californian born bass Ron Li-Paz who also studied at RADA. His sonorous voice is never stretched and he sings and speaks his role with fluency, clarity and conviction."

Seen & Heard International
Robert J. Farr


"The bass, Ron Li-Paz, presents a Sarastro of imposing majestical expression and authoritative vocal line."

Chrtistian Fruchart,
L'Alsace


"Ron Li-Paz is the sonorous Sarastro"

Von Sigfried Schibli, Basler Zeitung


"Ron Li-Paz is a very convincing Sarastro"

Bertrand Senechal,
Hebdoscope


"Ron Li-Paz took broad tempi as a profound Sarastro."

Crescendo Deutschland


"The most impressive performance was given by bass Ron Li-Paz as the keeper of the temple, Sarastro. Li-Paz delivered the patriarch's two stirring arias in a manner that was both lyrical and resonant."

The Daily Breeze
Jim Farber, Music Critic


"Ron Li-Paz had sufficient richness and weight for Sarastro's arias."

Los Angeles Times
Richard S. Ginnell


"…the marvelously resonant Sarastro of Ron Li-Paz…"

L.A. Reader
Alan Rich


"With a lot of stage acting in his background, Li-Paz fit most naturally with his character (Don Alfonso, Cosi Fan Tutte); his English diction was something the others could have emulated."

Houston Chronicle
Charles Ward


"Ron Li-Paz's secure, sonorous bass was a revelation."

Random Lengths, Los Angeles


"Ron Li-Paz as the high priest (Ramfis) is all-round the most convincing performance."

London Evening Standard
Tom Sutcliffe


"…the only singer to get any words across was Ron Li-Paz as Ramfis…"

The Sunday Telegraph
Michael Kennedy


"Ron Li-Paz sings a firm-voiced Ramfis."

The Stage
David Blewitt


"The theatrical bravura with which the bass-baritone Ron Li-Paz created the title role of Figaro clearly showed his past career as an actor."

Haagse Courant


"Ron Li-Paz acted as well as sang with an infectious enthusiasm."
