IL VIAGGIO A REIMS
Gioachino Rossini, Opera Australia
"Sharma has a voice that exemplifies the principles of bel canto – an ease throughout his much extended range, musical clarity in all fioritura and a melting command of morbidezza...."
​
"t is difficult to single out particular performances in such a strong cast. However, a particular highlight, is the tender duet between the Conte di Libenskof (Shanul Sharma) and the Marchesa Malibea (Sian Sharp)."
​
"some stood out: Sharma, an Indian brought up on Bollywood's music and a rock band, handled Libenskof's high mix of coloratura and bel canto with great delicacy"
​
"Of the large cast, Ruth Iniesta, Emma Pearson and Shanul Sharma provide dazzling vocal fireworks."
​
"Charming act three duet “D’alma celeste, oh Dio!” is beautifully sung and performed by Sian Sharp and Shanul Sharma.... Sharma sings with perfect Rossini crispness, and makes a suitably sultry leading man."
"The high tessitura and lovely Italian diction of Indian-Australian tenor Shanul Sharma (Count Libenskof) impressed"
