Ancient Voices Concert
Richardson Hall, Princeton, NJ
"The Chamber Players did not lead off with this avant-garde work (Crumb’s Ancient Voices of Children), but warmed up the afternoon with four lieder by Franz Schubert, performed by tenor David Kellett and accompanied by Ms. Tao. Mr. Kellett’s voice is full of richness, with every pitch laden with color. This richness often made the words sound more ferocious than the text actually called for, but was certainly suitable for the second lied, Der Atlas."

Evening
at Schubert's Concert
Richardson Hall, Princeton, NJ
"Tenor
David Kellett, launched the evening with five Schubert lieder, including
some repertory favorites. Kellett didn't take the easy route of exaggerated
effects, for example, in the famous Erlkönig where many singers
differentiate the three characters almost to the point of parody. Rather
his interpretations were astute, subtle and smooth."

Edwardian Evening
Opera at Florham
"David
Kellett, the tenor for the evening, was a perfect counterpart and blend
for Ms. McKenna. And so it should be, since they unite not only in song
but also in marriage. Most impressive for his long sustained piano tones,
Mr. Kellett nonetheless surprised and dazzled the audience with some
very heroic upper range fortes."
