This was a total joy to listen to this singer who is as articulate verbally as he is vocally and physically on the stage.

As a young student singer I actually played one of Lescaut's 2 guards in that RNCM production with Simon as Lescaut. I also sat next to him often in German class with our tutor Josephine Barber when i got to appreciate his sense of humor. Haven't seen him since college, but let me tell you he is the real thing - a very sincere, funny and talented individual. Success has not spoiled him. Great chap!

Simon, I've sent my male students to listen to you (sing) for years, and now I must say that I am deeply impressed by your thoughtfulness and vulnerability - humility and passion about your craft. Bravo. Blessings on you. Ken

So wonderful to hear such candor AND common sense. And unlike some of the others in his profession, he is not even trying to please everyone and become the fairy godfather to all. Wish more were as genuine.

He's disarmingly down to earth and unpretentious. I love his parodies of stuffy, pretentious types at various points--he's a good mimic. He seems like the kind of guy you could go out to a pub with and down a pint.

It’s interesting to see how shy and soft spoken he is off stage and how different he sounds: it has an almost tenor like light quality to it. Although, it should be noted that he actually began training as a tenor in his 20’s and went to music school with Simon Russell Beale, who also was originally training to be an opera singer before he became an actor.

You are right. What a breath of fresh air. And he is married to a charming, intelligent and beautiful woman, Zenaida Yanowsky, until recently dancing as a Principal with the Royal Ballet and now coaching and mentoring younger dancers. Just a mind-blowingly lovely and so talented couple.

Simon may not speak as fluently as he wishes ( who does? ) but his accents are known to be fantastic - certainly his French singing is absolutely flawless. Even Kristin Scott Thomas who lived there for over 25 years and is fluent, when she speaks, reveals the fact that she was not born and raised in France.

I cann't agree more. I wish no Opera in the world would ever have Hvorostovsky on their stage. Simon has a lovely voice I could listen to his singing all day, such a good actor on the stage as well.

Suzanne Derringer I’m not taking it hard. You’re the one that started the criticism. 🙂 Also, I haven’t seen every episode, so how am I supposed to know that they haven’t previously stated it? I was just curious. Calm down.
