"Under Oliver Dohnányi's lively direction the chorus sings with fervor. The collection ends resplendently with the triumphal scene from Aida, omitting the ballet but with the fanfare trumpets blazing out on either side most tellingly. With a playing time of 56 times this is an excellent bargain, with naturally balanced recording from the Bratislava Radio Concert Hall." Penguin Guide
"The singing is crisp, the language is idiomatic, and the orchestral parts are nicely detailed. I was particularly delighted with the Trovatore choruses and with the bleak song of the Scottish exiles from Macbeth." Fanfare
