Tenor Maximillian Jansen as Ferrando revealed a flickering tenderness in his act one aria “Un’aura amorosa.” - Joseph Dalton, Times Union

“The 11 o’clock number, “Sit Down You’re Rockin’ the Boat,” is performed by the character Nicely-Nicely. Maximillian Jansen’s rendition is everything one might expect from the rousing number. It stops the show, as it should.” - Bob Goepfert, WAMC

“Onstage all evening in the role of Monty, the murderous social climber, is the tenor Maximillian Jansen. Like a good British lad, he’s trim, a bit pale, and emotionally buttoned up. The character’s scheming mind-set comes through in Jansen’s warm but penetrating voice.”- Joseph Dalton, Times Union

“As Monty, the young man who is responsible for numerous deaths in his goal to gain a family fortune, Maximillian Jansen is terrific. His journey transports him from a decent young man to an immoral murderer to a sympathetic individual. Jansen is a compelling singer and a excellent actor.” - Bob Goepfert, Saratogian
