PRESS & REVIEWS
Manrico - Il Trovatore
Boheme Opera of New Jersey
"Verdi wrote the valiant soldier Manrico as an archetype of romantic lyricism, and tenor John Kun Park fit the bill with a portrayal of a character full of conflict — between his devotion to the unattainable Leonora and his struggle to understand Azucena’s torment...Park performed the aria “Ah, sì, ben mio, coll’essere” with the passion of a man resigned to his fate."​

"John Kun Park was a staunch Manrico...When Park sings his final aria to Leonora, you see the sincerity on his face as much as hearing it in a sure, confident tenor voice you believe could win a young woman’s heart."​

Erik - Der Fliegende Holländer
West Bay Opera
​
"John Kun Park('s)...electrifying, exciting voice...His tenor rings forth in rolling waves...declaring passionately his love of Senta...a trumpeting recounting of last night's dream..."
​
"...Clarion tenor John Kun Park as her bethrothed, Erik. Park demonstrates great clarity and power in his angst over Senta's betrayal."
​
"The second act yielded another highlight of the evening in tenor John Kun Park’s vital turn as Erik...Park’s singing, by turns warm and pleading, anguished and helplessly swamped by his own feelings, brought a deep dimension to the role."

Ismaele - Nabucco

“…John Kun Park’s Ismaele sings with a tenor voice that floats its high notes with ease and emotional fervor. His voice intertwines in love and reverence…”
