‘The semi-staging of Bach’s St John Passion in a gaol lent a sharp dramatic edge to what we were hearing. Matthew has very quickly forged a relationship with these singers and brought us a brilliant, and tremendously dramatic performance.’
Jac Van Steen – Conductor
‘Matthew is a keen and energetic musician with a keen eye for detail and a sincere passion for the music he conducts’
Michael Quinn – Opera Magazine
‘Matthew Quinn provided secure and fluid stewardship over the young, occasionally exposed orchestra’
Sean Doherty – Composer
Matthew drew a stirring performance of my ‘Hail! Gladdening Light’ from Cappella Caeciliana, sensitively guiding the music from a meditative stillness to an impassioned climax.
