"The promising Italian tenor Luciano Botelho is a definite asset as Narciso."

David Mellor - 01/07/17 Daily Mail

​

"Luciano Botelho's singing the tenor part of Narciso solidly"

Curtis Rogers - 29/06/16 Seenandheard

“Luciano Botelho’s clear, bright tenor impressed in the role of Narciso”

Von David Karlin - 27/06/17 Bachtrack

 

"There’s bright, Italianate singing too from Luciano Botelho’s Narciso" 

Edward Bhesania - 27/07/2017 The stage

​

"Luciano Botelho bravely essayed the challenging role of Narciso with its high-wire acrobatics (it was written for Giovanni David who created Rodrigo in Otello and whose range went, easily, up to high F). Botelho has an attractive lyric tenor voice with a delightful stage presence…" 

Robert Hugil - 27/06.17 - Opera Today

​

"But, to bump into Botelho was a discovery: a valuable dramatic interpreter, and a name to graduate as an expert in the future of rossinian productions. In the high demanding arena, he has all requirements that allow him to approach a tenor role using the most variable and distinct registers. The voice is sweet, powerful, beautiful, clear, and very soft with the purpose of reaching top notes that require a notorious and great precision."

"The other overseas visitor in the cast is the Brazilian Luciano Botelho as Geronio’s duplicitous ‘friend’ Narciso. He throws himself into Phillips’ comic milleu with great abandon and, if the voice is not a large one, he makes up for it with grace and agility. Given that the role is eminently surplus to plot requirements, it’s a credit to him that he brings the house down with his second act aria in which, confined to a bathing hut, he drops his pants, deodorises and changes into an Elvis suit"
