The Bassarids - Madrid, Teatro Real ABC, June 4, 1999 "Outstanding was Kenneth Riegel as a memorable Tiresias, singing with vocal power." Jose Garcia del Busto
Wozzeck - Metropolitan Opera New York Times, April 19, 1999 "Kenneth Riegel provides a peppery Captain, afraid of his own shadow and so all the shriller in exercising his power of command." Paul Griffiths
Salome - Athens Eleftheros, January 4, 1999 "Of the singers, outstanding was the American tenor Kenneth Riegel, who portrayed with his penetrating and very expressive voice ideally the sick hysteria, demanded in the role of Herod." Salome - Santa Fe Festival Denver Post, August 1, 1998 "Tenor Kenneth Riegel was a memorable Herod, petulant in voice and action and decadently attired in a swirling purple robe. His appeals to Salome to accept jewels and other riches instead of the Baptist's head were pungent." Jeff Bradley
Salome - Paris, Theatre du Chatelet Le Figaro, June 5, 1997 "Kenneth Riegel's portrayal of Herod was simply sublime!" Pierre Petit
Boris Godunov - Nice Opera Nice Matin, October 20, 1996 "Kenneth Riegel was excellent as Prince Shuisky with his voice and acting." Andre Peyregne
Salome - Metropolitan Opera Opernglas, June 1996 "Kenneth Riegel finds the exact vocal colours for the many different emotions of Herod. His ability to fit the expressivenes of his voice to the words, together with his powerful singing, makes him the best interpreter of that part, today." Ulrich Ruhnke
Gurrelieder - Madrid ABC, January 17, 2000 "..magnificent as Klaus Narr was Kenneth Riegel, who is a real maestro of these roles..." Jose Garcia del Busto
