Rinaldo
DETROIT OPERA 2025
"...[Tingzon's work] was sterling. Tingzon, in fact, gives possibly the finest acting performance, doing some really affecting work in a second role as Almirena’s father. He didn’t have to go the extra mile in that part, but he really does, and it makes a big difference."
Detroit Free Press
"King Goffredo (Kyle Sanchez Tingzon, a silvery-smooth countertenor) doubles as the king laying siege to Jerusalem and a real-life father to the hospital-bound princess."

"Countertenor Kyle Tingzon‘s unique vocal timbre resonated with clarity in the cathedral’s spacious hall. He added a special quality of sound to the ensemble of singers and musicians."
Opera Wire
Saint John Passion
2024
"So konnte zum Beispiel Kyle Sanchez Tingzon mit klarer und facettenreicher Countertenor-Stimme absolut überzeugen. Seine Arie „Es ist vollbracht“ ist stets ein emotionaler Höhepunkt der Johannes-Passion. Der Zufall wollte, dass just in diesem Moment die Glocken von St. Nikolaus läuteten, die Dramaturgie hätte es nicht besser planen können."
​
For example, Kyle Sanchez Tingzon was absolutely convincing, with his clear and multi-faceted countertenor voice. His aria “Est ist vollbracht” is always a highly emotional point in the Saint John Passion. In that moment, as chance would have it, the bells of St. Nicholas Church rang; the drama could not have been planned any better.

"silver timbre & laser-focused intensity"
"All four singers were highly effective in their roles, the standout arguably being Kyle Tingzon, whose big aria after he has been rescued by Ippolita from execution had real dramatic heft, the abraded silver timbre of his voice projected with laser-focused intensity that brought the biggest cheers of the evening."

Opera Today
"Countertenor Kyle Sanchez Tingzon stood out as the Messenger (the voice type switch from the original baritone was a plus)."
The Wall Street Journal
"The program lists him simply as "The Messenger", but he is, in fact, a bright Angel. Kyle Sanchez Tingzon, a gifted countertenor, sings this role. This Angel drifts in and out of the story, guiding Harvey on his way."
BroadwayWorld
"perfectly matched... striking."
“Counter-tenor Kyle Tingzon and [mezzo] soprano Xiao Xiao sing Nero and Poppea. Their voices are so perfectly matched that when they twine together in this lovely duet it could almost be one singer singing of his love for himself. Most striking. And perhaps, for these characters, not inappropriate.”
