    “Strongly recommended.” - Gramophone

    “With his winning personality, assured technique and a vibrant, warm instrument, Drew Minter may yet be the first superstar countertenor.” - Pulse!

    “Fans of early music are likely to know Minter's unusually pure and flexible voice, and his delivery that is both virtuosic in its ornamentation and somehow stately.” - Fanfare
