Critics have praised Keith’s voice as a “pleasing bass baritone...spews out a potent and rangy denunciation that shows a voice of considerable size” (James Sohre, Opera Today) and described his performances as featuring "...stellar singing, and it's abundantly clear why the moment we hear his stunning, classically trained voice" (Kerry Clawson, Akron Beacon Journal). David Fleshler of the South Florida Classical Review noted, “He brought a dramatic verve to the vocal line, in which a single voice stands out heroically against the orchestra.”

His recent roles include Dr. Podsnap in Tobias Picker’s "Awakenings," Elder McLean in Carlisle Floyd’s "Susannah" with Opera Theatre of Saint Louis, and Colline in "La bohème" with Florida Grand Opera.
