From Broadway World:
”Tenor Nicholas Simpson took center stage in “Olim lacus colueram,” navigating the notoriously high vocal writing with impressive precision. His performance captured the dramatic and slightly theatrical spirit of the piece while maintaining strong vocal control, drawing the audience into the vivid storytelling of the moment.”

From the Arkansas-Democrat Gazette:
”Electric…you owe it to yourself to abandon any Sunday afternoon plans and go…Tenor Nicholas Simpson excelled in his sole solo, Olim lacus colueram, the high-pitched lament of a swan being roasted.”
