“Kevin Hanek has thrown his hat into the ring as a young, powerful Heldentenor, and rightly so. The grandeur of his vocal style, musicality, size and color of voice, plus impeccable musicianship, make him a rare combination of talent and intellect. I will watch his career with great interest.”

—Carol Kirkpatrick, dramatic soprano, former leading singer with San Francisco Opera, New York voice teacher, and author of Aria Ready: The Business of Singing
