Puccini | Madama Butterfly | Pinkerton
Royal Opera HouseMar 2024 - Apr 2024Mexican-American tenor Joshua Guerrero was exceptionally good as Pinkerton. He was in fine voice and is a skilled actor. His Pinkerton is despicable, unworthy and a clear coward. … Pinkerton’s villainy was so well expressed that when Guerrero bowed to the public there were a few good-humoured and appreciative boos – not because he wasn’t excellent but because his unpleasant Pinkerton was so convincing.

One of the most hated characters in opera and yet Joshua Guerrero’s voice almost made me like him at times, his high notes are bright and full and his voice has charm and character.

Joshua Guerrero certainly looked the part of Pinkerton, the handsome, dashing naval officer par excellence. He matched Grigorian for warmth and pleasantness of phrasing and timbre

Boito | Mefistofele | Faust
Teatro dell'opera di RomaNov 2023 - Dec 2023The lyrical voice of Joshua Guerrero 's Faust is splendid , holding its tone from start to finish without giving up a moment.

American tenor Joshua Guerrero was an ideal choice for the role of Faust. His voice is powerful, and his high notes brilliant. More importantly, his voice has squillo, essential for expressiveness in this role.

Opera National de ParisMay 2023 - Jun 2023Guerrero has the ideal vocal colors that go well with Puccini's music. His voice, characterized by an expressive and beautiful use in the vocal passages, also has a pleasant drama and masculinity that is very pleasing.

Verdi | Macbeth | Macduff
Lyric Opera of ChicagoSep 2023A similarly enduring memory is Joshua Guerrero’s soaring treatment of Macduff’s ‘Ah, la paterna mano’. He built on the aria’s structure with subtle rubato, and his supple tone held the audience’s attention. The bel canto elements had full voice with Guerrero in this elegant reading.
