Rezensionen

'The high standard of the singing is one of the persistent glories of the Hyperion series. This disc is a source of pleasure in its own right and could serve as your introduction to a series in which delight is never likely to run dry' (Sydney Morning Herald, Australia)

'Superb … Wonderfully fluent, confident singing from Finley, soft-grained intimacy from Banse … a delight' (Gramophone)

'Elegant performances' (BBC Music Magazine)
