Good heavens! Someone who knows how to sing.
I'm not used to witnessing such a mature voice from such a young man.

He is such an excellent singer. He has a very mature and deep voice for quite a young man.

William, you scored one of the best versions of the Foggy Dew ! First acquaintance with this young singer, the name written down and searching for more. Thanks Independent Opera for bringing him to my attention . With compliments from the Netherlands.
