“Frankly I could listen to White's elegant, expressively plangent tenor all day. 'Misero Apollo' from Gli amori d'Apollo e di Dafne features the sort of long instrumental introduction over a circulating ground bass that is familiar from all manner of pieces. But here the instrumentalists make it their own and when White finally comes in, the results are pure magic.”

Robert Hugill November 2025

“A fine haute-contre, Kieran White is as eloquent and persuasive in Cavalli’s famous ‘Delizie, contenti’ as he is the same composer’s ‘Misero Apollo’….”

William Yeoman, Gramophone February 2026

“White's Misero Apollo is pure magic..”

Aart van der Wal, Opus Klassiek february 2026

“Kieran White’s clear and luminous lyric tenor shone in the opening recitative ‘Comfort ye my people’ and his runs in ‘Ev’ry valley’ were dispatched with admirable flair.”

Classical Source, Susan Stempleski - 14th December, 2024

“Kieran White’s warm, moldable tenor glowed in the opening recitative “Comfort ye my people.”  The proclamation “Ev’ry valley shall be exalted”, White smartly delivered the fast melismas.”

New York Classical Review, David Wright - 13th December, 2024

“Tenor Kieran White added a similar level of ornamentation in his pieces, showing off elegant melismatic clarity in his opening pairing of “Comfort ye” and “Ev’ry valley.”

Charles T. Downey, Washington Classical Review December 2025

“…the English tenor Kieran White, as the father of the two nymphs, made people sit up and take notice with his elegant delivery, particularly in his one long, elegiac aria.”

VORARLBERGER NACHRICHTEN

“With Elina Welle as (another) nymph Elpina and the young, fresh-voiced tenor Kieran White as the shepherd Narete, here are two more voices that fit harmoniously into this vocal sextet.”

TIROLER TAGESZEITUNG

“The English tenor Kieran White (Narete) only has a small role, but he turns it into something extraordinary. When Narete offers the unyielding Oralto all his wealth so that he and his daughters can be released, he asks for mercy in the aria “Deh ti piega, deh consenti” and warns Oralto that he too could one day suffer a blow of fate. White performs this aria with heartfelt fervor, making it the musical highlight of the opera.”

KIELER NACHRICHTEN

“Also Kieran White as the nymph's father Narete…whose layered tenor voice immediately invites you to listen - his great lament became the central moment of the performance.”

MÜNCHER MERKUR

“Kieran White, a finalist in the 2022 Cesti Competition, rounds off the ensemble excellently with his smooth tenor as Narete.”

ONLINE MUSIK MAGAZIN

“Narete's aria begging for mercy, which Kieren White delivers in a very moving and expressive way, is touchingly rousing. His tenor is multi-layered and flexible with an open, free timbre.”

OPERA-ONLINE.COM

“Here we have another British tenor, Kieran White: his character has only two solo arias, both in the second act, in addition to the duet with Osmino in the third. An elegant and sensitive interpreter, his performance in the aforementioned aria which here concluded the first of the two acts was applauded enthusiastically.”

OPERAINCASA.COM

“Much credit must be accorded to the god of sleep Sommeil (Kieran White) and his sons (Nick Pritchard, Olivier Cesarini, and Antonin Rondepierre), who transform Lully’s ethereal dream sequence in act 3 into an exquisite exercise of vocal painting and tonal blending.”

Christian Ocier, Parterre Box February 2024

“Mathan by Kieran White, a tenor with a beautiful, ringing timbre and capable of excellent affect”

“Mathan di Kieran White, tenore di bel timbro squillante e capace di ottimi affetti”

Andrea Palermo

“In terms of voice, the performance can be considered sung in a very elegant and noble way. Almost all artists are gifted with interesting voices and no doubt they are no strangers to the secrets of the old techniques. The most convincing was Kieran White in the role of Castor, his voice had the brilliance of French music, but also the lightness that is the basis of the execution of this type of repertoire..... both singers, thanks to the resignation from a useless impression of exaltation, reach a high degree of scenic truth, sometimes even remoteness, which is not easy to achieve in this type of libretto. On their faces, any surprise, fear, happiness or emotion caused by the unexpected course of events was discreet, but not devoid of internal tension.”

WIESŁAW KOWALSKI

"...In the premiere cast, young tenors - Kieran White (Castor) and Aleksander Rewinski (Mercury, Athlete) dealt with their difficult parts with a lot of ease..."

JACEK MARCZYŃSKI, THE TWO SONS OF JUPITER

"...Pollux induced Father Jupiter to restore the Brother's life and their meeting led to a delightful duo, in which the protagonist was gently guided by the resonant, almost magical sound of Castor, the tenor Kieran White.”

KIELER NACHRICHTEN

“A special word for Baroque tenor, Kieran White. He replaced an indisposedsinger in the role of Damon, Acis’ friend, late in the day and his true ‘haute-contre’ was possibly the clearest and most focused voice of all the soloists. Nowfirmly established in the industry, he happily acknowledges that his operatic lifebegan in the chorus of the Dorset Opera Festival. Yet another ‘emerged’ artistmaking a name for themselves through this exciting Company.”

DAILY EXPRESS - MARTINA BET

“Dorset tenor Kieran White took over from the indisposed Tom Smith as Acis’swise friend Damon. His lovely high tenor voice was a satisfying contrast...”
