Stefan Louw, one of South Africa’s best tenors, did a magnificent job of the role of Tebaldo …

... His phrasing was poetic and the musical line gently spun. The intensity of his communication was illuminating, being sensitive to nuance and an uncanny feeling for phrase continuity.

Stéfan Louw’s tenor gleamed in ensembles. His ringing upper register coped magisterially with the music of Radames.

At Stéfan Louw’s first utterance of Aida’s name, goose bumps chase up my arms … Louw spoils the audience with his rich tenor voice.

Stefan Louw limned Rodolfo with a suave, light tenor. His lyric voice blended well with Stapela's shimmering soprano. He was appropriately ardent when called for, by turns meltingly lyrical and at times even vibrantly powerful.

...Stefan Louw really did do a marvellous job of the contradictory Rodolfo.
