"Joseph Flaxman sang well with a unique timbre and pleasing,
almost 'smoky' tone."

"Baritone Joseph Flaxman beguiled the audience with a sensual 'Toreador song' sung with brio and panache that perfectly suited his role as Carmen's lover. Flaxman's vibrant baritone is at once powerful and subtle with a lovely diminuendo on the vowel 'Ah' just before the refrain. All that plus personal charm and matinee idol good looks makes for a very bright future indeed."
