"Best of all is the musical performance, an all-time Wexford high... There was no weakness in the cast, and the conductor Jean-Luc Tingaud had the music in his blood."
Michael Kennedy, The Sunday Telegraph, 30th October 2005
"Above all, the standard of the soloists engaged proved consistently rewarding, with some exciting newcomers and singers already well established in their careers... Faure's only opera certainly doesn't deserve its neglect ...musically it was very good, eloquently conducted by Jean-Luc Tingaud, with thrilling performances from Nora Sourouzian and Gerard Powers as the reuinted husband and wife. Among Penelope's servants and suitors, Doreen Curran's plush-toned Cleone and Paul Carey Jones' resonantly sung Eurymaque stood out, fine young singers who will surely soon take on larger assignments."
Hugh Canning, The Sunday Times, 30th October 2005
"All the suitors were good, with tenor David Curry (Antinoüs) and baritone Paul Carey Jones (Eurymaque), both excellent, to the fore."
Andrew Cooper, Opera Japonica, December 2005
"A large and hard-working cast offered pretty faultless support, in particular Paul Carey Jones displaying swagger and voice-to-match as Eurymaque."
Francis Muzzu, Opera Now, Jan/Feb 2006
