"Baritone Brian Carter proved a captivating Tonio, investing one of
opera's most despicable and pathetic characters with credible
nuances--snorting with rapture while being patted by Nedda, spitting
like a snapping turtle upon her rebuke."

"With his big, commanding voice, the baritone [Carter] in the
title role demonstrated he possessed his character with dignity
and tenderness... I liked the pathos he found in Rigoletto's
situation as the court jester hated by all. Equally compelling was
the desperate disintegration into revenge... Carter showed a firm
control of range and technique. His musicality and sensitivity
made him the reason to hear this cast."
