Handel's Poro - 2006 Goettingen
Festival
"Young British countertenor Andrew Radley stepped in as a last-
minute replacement singing the role of Gandarte. He acquitted himself
extremely well both dramatically and musically...”
- Opera Magazine
Handel's Tamerlano - Cambridge Handel Opera Group, 2005
"Countertenor Andrew Radley has a strong stage presence and his
Tamerlano rightly often dominated the stage. Radley seemed at ease with
the complex passage-work that characterises some of Tamerlano's arias. I
look forward to hearing and seeing much more of Andrew Radley as he
seems a natural stage creature."

Robert Hugill, MV Daily
Handel's Tamerlano - Cambridge Handel Opera Group, 2005
"Tamerlano himself, sung by the commanding Andrew Radley, was
suitably repellent"
- Opera magazine
Handel's Flavio, Early Opera Company, 2005
"[Flavio] is not a heroic role, but Handel wrote it for the castrato
Berenstadt ... and the countertenor Andrew Radley seized his
opportunities, with strongly projected singing, to make something of the
king's wayward character."
- Opera magazine
Handel's
Susanna, Early Opera Company, 2003
"Rachel Nicholls enthralled [...], balancing her loving duets with the
countertenor Andrew Radley's creamy, well-phrased Joachim."
- Opera magazine
"One of the
UK's most promising young singers"
- Chester Chronicle, 2004
