"Les sunlights des « Musicals » américains conviennent tout à fait à son(Gilbert-Michel Rolle) timbre. Il donne au texte la liberté rythmique qui lui convient. Il prend un réel plaisir, et le public aussi, à se mouvoir dans les eaux de Rodgers, Arlen ou Bernstein. La voix est centrée, ronde , le chanteur bouge avec aisance et tient son auditoire...Le charme opère."

"In three Italian arias, Rolle easily mastered the language of Dante, as well as the harmonious contours of the melody. In Schubert, Rolle’s voice found its resonant quality and its power. The language of Goethe inspired the singer to achieve beautiful phrasing and sensitive, expressive articulation. Rolle’s interpretation was close to perfection in Hugo Wolf’s ‘Mignon.’ Talent, expressive presence and style are all present."

"In San Francisco last Friday, Swiss Tenor Gilbert-Michel Rolle offered a performance truer to the Liederabend tradition than anything I have heard in recent memory...Rolle’s voice is expressive, with warm colors..."

"Ce Musical Voyage est l’aboutissement, pour Gilbert-Michel Rolle d’un travail long et soutenu, la reconnaissance surtout de la diversité de son talent d’interprète et le charme de sa palette vocale... On n’entend qu’une diction pure. Et le timbre clair et chaud de sa voix de ténor."

"This 'Musical Voyage' is for Gilbert-Michel Rolle the achievement of a long and sustained work, a recognition of his talent as a performer and a tribute to the beauty of his vocal range."

"With unaffected charm, Rolle shaped the exquisite flow of melody in Duparc's 'Chanson Triste' as if the musical line itself contained the consolation longed for in the text."

“Swiss Tenor Gilbert-Michel Rolle has a lyrical voice and adapts it skillfully to the emotions deeply anchored in Schubert’s finest work, Monday’s being three of his most cosmic lieder. Rolle lent vibrant energy to songs by Caldara, Lalo and Fauré.”
