“”Romulo Delgado was a swarthy and self-indulgent Duke, whose La donna è mobile was the sparkling tenor showcase that Verdi intended it to be.”

“As the brigadier Don Jose, tenor Romulo Delgado was in fine voice. A beautiful instrument with power to spare. Mr. Delgado’s rendition of “La fleur que tu m’avais jetee” was delightfully tender and emotionally laden.”

” She was equally matched by Romulo Delgado’s Cavaradossi whose soaring E lucevan le stelle packed an emotional punch. Jessica Lane and Romulo Delgado made a believable romantic pair who were equally matched vocally and dramatically”

“She was partnered by tenor Romulo Delgado as Cavaradossi, whose warm, clarion sound with an easy top was a pleasure. His “E lucevan le stelle” was a highlight of the evening”

“Pinkerton, the cad of the piece must transmute from arrogant and unfeeling, to remorseful penitent so the role demands acting skills as well as vocal talent, Romulo Delgado possesses both. His tenor range shows no weakness at either end of his range and even his slight tendency to overplay can be forgiven”
