Benjamin Irvine-Capel
Counter-Tenor
“And then we got the stand-out of them all, in the singing of the very young (20-ish?) countertenor, Benjamin Irvine-Capel who was stepping in at less than two days’ notice. Adjectives seem feeble, for this was among the most beautiful performances of that piece I have encountered, whether in live performance or on recording. Surely, his is a name that will become well-known.” Martin Adams, former contributor of concert reviews to The Irish Times
“A name to watch for the future will certainly be that of the alto soloist, Benjamin Irvine-Capel, whose performance was a real highlight: both Qui sedes and Agnus Dei were sung with grave, clarity, and a beautifully sustained tone.” Exeter Festival Chorus
