"Anthony Flaum, the producer and founder of Prologue Opera, who also sang the lead tenor Mario Cavaradossi, is clearly a person who rises to a challenge." (Hastings Online Times) (2024)

“Anthony Flaum, [...] acted the soldier with winning charm and a hugely expressive face…" (The Times) (2021)
“Anthony Flaum’s Pluto, a suave bounder who takes bold command of his music and the stage.” (The Stage / Yehuda Shapiro) (2019)
Courting her (Hélène) with engaging energy was the Paris of Anthony Flaum. He performed with the focus and precision of a true farceur, his original training in musical theatre clearly proving an asset, and sang with unstinting commitment.” (Opera / Yehuda Shapiro) (2019)
“…the tenor here is the clear-toned Anthony Flaum – another fine stage performer with immaculate diction.” (The Stage / George Hall) (2018)
“Anthony Flaum was an ideal Pinkerton, exuding charisma with film-star good looks......Flaum’s ebullient, flexible tenor felt just right for Pinkerton’s cocksure vocal presence,.....” (2018)

“Anthony Flaum as Aroldo sang a bold tenor of extensive lyrical dimensions, and will surely go far…” (Mark Ronan Theatre Reviews) (2017)

“Anthony Flaum's bold and bracing tenor found good employment as Jose, whose inner conflicts he enumerated with skill.” (Opera / George Hall) (2015)
“Flaum has the role under his skin, breezing effortlessly through his serenades as the impoverished writer. But his touching acting betrays no sense of familiarity, and when his beloved Mimi lies dying in his arms as the opera draws to a close, his eyes moisten and he rocks back and forth with grief – it feels as though he’s losing her for the very first time.” (Fringeopera.com) (2015)
“…ringing, mellifluous tenor of Anthony Flaum in the elixir swigging role of Nemorino.” (Belfast Telegraph) (2014)
“The tenor Anthony Flaum nailed Lensky’s poetic ardour and impetuousness brilliantly, a ‘down-boy’ romantic in his first aria and drunkenly out of control at the party... he pressed all the right emotional buttons in his gripping pre-duel aria.” (ClassicalSource) (2012)
