The second Cellini, Ivan Gyngazov, had a tenor voice that is liberated and powerful. Music lovers came especially to see this extraordinary singer, desiring to hear this rising star of Russian opera.
Maya Krylova, ClassicalMusicNews.Ru, 14 November 2021
The Helikon Opera’s tenor Ivan Gyngazov can cope with the incredibly complex role of the titular hero [of the opera Benvenuto Cellini], which combines dramatic intensity and extremely high upper notes. This vocalist’s skills increase with each passing year, and he can control better and better his powerful and rich though not too obedient voice.
