«The discovery of the evening is the tenor Remy Burnens as Argirio. The higher the tessitura, the greater the virtuosity required, the more comfortable he seems to feel. The high notes are bright, powerful, confident and virtuosic.»
«The revelation of the evening remains the Swiss Remy Burnens, an authentic Rossinian tenor, with surprisingly easy high notes. This remarkable vocalist gives to the (secondary) character of Argirio, this dimension and this depth which the two protagonists lack. Each of his interventions raises the level by a few degrees, and his grand aria in Act II is a subtle blend of expressiveness and perfectly accomplished technique.»
«... the young tenor Remy Burnens recommends himself with his velvety timbre and crystal-clear diction for further, larger roles in the oratorio repertoire.»
«The great discovery of the evening however, is the singer in the role of Argirio. Known to afficionados for quite some time, Burnens captivates with an almost effortless course through the challenging role. Right in to the highest spheres the young tenor weaves his coloratura, with bright and pleasant timbre and perfect breath control. Keep an eye and an ear on this man!»

«Remy Burnens played an enamoured yet energetic Tonio, that enthused with his bright tenor.»
«Remy Burnens demonstrated an astonishing versatility, both stylistically and linguistically, without giving the impression that he had to push himself to his limits.»
«Remy Burnens is an ideal casting. After his phenomenal Arigiro in Rossini‘s Tancredi, he now lends his glorious tenore di grazio to Ferrando, which he sings with plentiful squillo and seemingly endless breath.»
«The light tenor of Remy Burnens was master all challenges and delicate tasks with ease.»
