REVIEWS

"Stephen Milling deserves praise - a powerfully eloquent Gurnemanz." (Der Neue Merker, March 2013)

 

“The imposing bass Stephen Milling, singing the role of Hunding in Wagner's "Walküre," rumbled forth with stage-shaking low notes in his first rehearsal with the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra. Jaws dropped in the first-violin section. Some of the young players, students at Tanglewood and top-notch musicians themselves, smiled in amazement. One violinist mouthed "Wow!" to her stand partner.” (The New York Times, July 2005)
