Pollione in NORMA
San Francisco Opera
“Thomas deployed a plangent tenor sound, rock solid intonation and…a formidable presence as the Roman consul who causes Norma’s and Adalgisa’s personal distress.”
–Harvey Steiman, Seen and Heard International
“Russell Thomas is a very fine Pollione, at once elegant and heroic — a rare combination even in these tenor-rich times with so many worthy lyric singers. It’s virile, stylish singing…”
–Greg Freed, Parterre Box
