Mendelssohn : Elijah / Hertford Choral Society

"By simple gesture and the unfailing integrity of their singing, the four soloists, Jane Webster(deputising admirably at short notice)………ensured that the dramatic momentum of the work was sustained, in addition to giving delight individually through their solos." R J Pope / Hertfordshire Mercury

Smetana : The Bartered Bride / Neath Opera

Donizetti : Maria Stuarda / Scottish Opera Go Round

"The splendid Jane Webster caught the continental image of Queen Elizabeth particularly well (in Europe she is remembered as a cruel egotist), baring her teeth and snarling meanly, but singing with a fluent, rich tone and a direct and spirited delivery." Raymond Monelle / Opera

 

"Jane Webster is a jealously imperious Elizabeth I, commanding her arias and her courtiers with similar confidence, but with those hints of emotional insecurity and mistrust, which lend the characterisation sympathy as well as severity." Geoffrey Norris / Daily Telegraph

 

"Jane Webster’s considerable stage presence and vocal power made her regal indeed."

Southern Reporter (Scotland)

Il Pittor Parigino / Buxton Festival

"Jane Webster sounded excellent." David Fallows / The Times

 

Park Lane Group / Purcell Room

"….the artist who shared this concert, the soprano Jane Webster, ultimately made the greater impression. She is already a highly promising singer….whether in Robin Holloway’s cycle of love poems by Graves, ‘Wherever we may be’, in Anthony Payne’s spiritual Lagerkvist settings, ‘Evening Land’, or in Judith Weir’s entertainingly idiosyncratic, unaccompanied ‘three-act opera’, ‘King Harold’s Saga’, she was an ardent champion of the music, blessed with a highly sensitive pianist in Nicholas Bosworth." Stephen Pettit / The Times

 

Tchaikovsky : Iolanta / Aldeburgh Festival

"But to raise the flag, the most promising voices among them are British : Jane Webster’s beautifully focused Iolanta." Michael John White / The Independent

 

"The blind Iolanta was sung by Jane Webster, who made her a vulnerable figure weeping in the dark forever. The pathos she introduced into her soft singing entranced us and it was a heart-stopping moment when she fell back into the Moorish Doctor’s arms after she discovered she was cured." East Anglian Times
