Don Jose
Carmen
Palm Beach Opera
Jonathan Burton portrayed Don José, the soldier who Carmen sets on a path that would end with her own death outside the bull ring. Vocally, the tenor was excellent. His Flower Song, in which he confessed to treasuring the wilting bloom she tossed to him in Seville, was real showstopper, as he effortlessly drew out long notes to wring from them maximum emotion. -David Fleshler

Canio in Omaha, by Opera News
"The highlight of the evening was tenor Jonathan Burton’s Canio. Burton’s voice was solid and ringing throughout the whole evening. “Vesti la giubba” was masterfully sung, ringing the hall, and touching the soul. His emotion filled breakdown after the aria instilled sympathy in the audience. In the final scene, the growing intensity of each “il nome” elicited both fear and pathos."
