The Kyrie and Gloria were resonant with a full sound. In the Gloria, Kevin Doherty's solo passage "Qui tollis" was particularly effective, beginning with the accompanying solo cello of Ron Lambe and ending with a most expressive "Miserere nobis."

A wonderful actor as well, his Dulcamara in UT Opera Theatre’s fall production of L’Elisir D’Amore was a sure indicator of a strong future for him on the opera stage.

This well-cast duo (with Pittsburgh Opera’s Katy Williams) made a delightful pair and was strong, both vocally and dramatically, in the concert staging.

Doherty delivered a brilliant “Non più andrai,” Figaro’s humorous military-like send-off for the character of Cherubino.

Without fail, Doherty thrilled the audience with “Largo al factotum,” the opera’s introduction of Figaro, the jack-of-all-trades.
