"Warwick Fyfe as the evil sorcerer Klingsor was simply sensational. He thundered the text, expressing the seething rage underlying Klingsor’s malevolence. His articulation of Wagner’s text was exemplary. Having recently excelled as Alberich in Opera Australia’s Ring Cycle, Fyfe has shown himself to be one of the finest Wagnerian singers Australia has produced."

Recent Performances
Gurrelieder, with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. under the baton of Maestra Simone Young.
“Toward the end it was if Fyfe was longing to sing, a moving yearning that led logically into a powerful choral conclusion, testament to music’s ability to deliver the most decisively powerful climaxes.” Gordon Williams, Operawire. 24/03/2024
https://operawire.com/sydney-symphony-orchestra-2024-review-gurrelieder/#google_vignette
Alberich, Der Ring des Nibelungen. 2023 Opera Australia
“And into the history books Warwick Fyfe goes in accomplishing a feat of operatic strength and flexibility after demonstrating what a commanding Wotan he can portray in MOC’s Ring earlier this year and following up with a performance equal to the world’s best with his persistently parasitic and impactful Alberich. “ Paul Selar, Opera Today. 10/12/2023
Wotan, The Ring 2023. Melbourne Opera Company
“The singing was of a generally high order, led by Warwick Fyfe’s magisterial Wotan, a long way from his last seen (but equally effective) appearance as Bottom. He suggested a boss god genuinely challenged by the magnitude of the decisions demanded of him, and it will be interesting to see how this develops through the succeeding operas.” Sandra Bowdler, 25/-3/2023.
