"His sidekick, Leporello, was hilarious as the
long-suffering servant. You don’t often get real belly laughs in opera,
but Nathan Stark, an accomplished patter singer, did while delivering
perfect dialogue in a booming bass."
- Michigan Live, February 2013
" In the comprimario role of the Duke of Norfolk, Nathan Stark displayed a fresh, sharply focused [bass].”
" Mr. Stark’s unusual, variegated voice had already impressed me in earlier concerts. He is an original, gifted with a large, piebald voice of power and resonance...he was entirely in his element on the operatic stage. "

"In the small but key role of the tribe’s
“enforcer,” Nourabad, bass Nathan Stark was particularly adept at using
his dark instrument to create a sense of menace and foreboding once he’s
discovered the forbidden love between Leila and Nadir."

"The bass, Nathan Stark as the King of Egypt has become one of my
favorite performers at the Virginia Opera over the recent years. He did a
spectacular job as the Commendatore in Don Giovanni and as Sparafucile
in Rigoletto. Mr. Stark has a booming rich bass voice and is
consistently called on for roles that demand great stage presence, which
he fulfills so naturally."
