"Emotionaler und zutiefst persönlicher Gesang ... Keegan sang nicht nur wunderschön, sondern mit Absicht ... Mit einem satten, dunklen Ton in ihrer Stimme verwendete die Mezzosopranistin nuancierte Phrasierungen und Dynamiken."

"Shannon Keegan (Mezzo-soprano) makes it vividly and wonderfully clear that the real reconciliation in this opera lies in Zerlina's C major aria "Vedrai carino".

"Ms. Keegan is a tremendous vocalist, but proved herself to be an actress as well, able to find her way believably and honestly into the deep feelings in the text. At one point, during a piano interlude, she turned her back to the audience and looked down at the keyboard as if it were another character on stage with her."

"In ‘King David’, Keegan sang of the man’s profound despair heightened by the singing of a nightingale... ‘King David’, however, was one of the freeze-frame moments of the entire week."

"The outstanding American mezzo-soprano, Shannon Keegan,
then styled the "Habanera" with dazzling tones and great vocal expressiveness....The Easter chorus from Pietro Mascagni's "Cavalleria rusticana" had a magnificent effect, where Shannon Keegan once again offered an impressive vocal performance as Santuzza."

"Shannon Keegan, a very versatile mezzo-soprano who performed a brilliant "Habanera" from Bizet's "Carmen" both vocally and dramatically."
