"In excellent voice, Victor Sgarbi relishing his role as his character's passions raise." (Germont) - King's Head Theatre - La Traviata - British Theatre - Oct/18.
"Victor Sgarbi gives sturdy performance. I thought there was visible conflict in Sgarbi’s eyes as he convinced Violetta to leave Elijah. It gave an extra dimension to the part of Sinclair, making him seem like a man in complex situation rather than your traditional evil and domineering father figure." King's Head Theatre - Traviata - Frank McHugh - Arthurs Seat - 7/10/18
"The ensemble numbers were rock solid and Victor Sgarbi as MP Sinclair (Germont) is a reliable slimeball - King's Head Theatre - La Traviata - Culture Whisper - Oct/18
"Victor Sgarbi blusters his way through as an MP driven by personal ambition that he dresses up with shreds of self-deluding guff about “making a difference”" -La Traviata - King's Head Theatre - Plays to See - 3/10/18
"Sgarbi too has a voice well worth hearing: rich in tone, lucidly enunciated, and catching the overriding cynicism of this Spanish rake aptly and cleverly. He strutted to good effect, quite incapable of seeing the fiery doom his grotesque activities will land him in." Roderic Dunned 25/6/16.
"...while the charm of Victor Sgarbi as the permanently amorous Giovanni won sympathy against the odds." 13/06/16 Louise Schweitzer
"The young professional soloists ... Victor Sgarbi were outstanding, resulting in an overall performance of the highest standard." - 04/16 - Frome Times - Carmina Burana

"As the brutal Polyphemus, Victor Sgarbi displayed a strong presence and his aria “O ruddier than the cherry” was deliciously executed." Nahoko Gotoh, Bachtrack, 5/11/2013
"Victor Sgarbi’s Polyphemus was elevated to more than a farcical villain and his bullish harassment of Galatea was even uncomfortable to watch. The dramatic context was there but the music remained the focus; a perfect marriage of the two aspects of the work." Joe Richomme, Fringe Opera, 9/11/2013
"Victor Sgarbi as the maestro gave a well developed performance and was a convincing character. John Bird , 26/08/11
"Restraint and a truly well placed baritone voice were a major contribution from Victor Sgarbi the Turk of the title." Barry Grantham ,7/2009.
