Vickers brings his "powerful voice" to Sarasota Opera's "Manon Lescaut"
"Supported by the rich sound of the Sarasota Opera Orchestra and chorus, conducted by Artistic Director Victor DeRenzi, soprano Sandra Lopez, as Manon, and tenor Matthew Vickers, as Des Grieux, led a fine supporting cast through this dramatic tangle with authority and impressive tone. Vickers, in particular, has a powerful voice, well-suited to the dramatic demands of this complex story." -Sarasota Herald-Tribune
