ACCOLADES

"Deaver and Serena Hill...sang a lovely duet in the first act...Deaver's voice was consistently strong and filled with passion throughout."  Arkansas Democrat-Gazette--June 20th, 2004

"Eric Deaver played Alfred...he hit his 'High C' and more lovely notes throughout the evening, and reminded me of one of my heroes, the late tenor, Jan Peerce. Eric is not only a talented tenor, but also an elegant actor who convinced me that his only goal... was to seduce Rosalinda, come hell or high water."  The Source--April 18th, 2003

"Deaver sang Aeneas with forth-right, oblivious pride." 
Arizona Daily Star--March 25th, 2001
