"She is a coloratura with fine agility, a real trill, a very high extension (up to an F on this recording), and an intelligent way with the texts. She also has an innate sense of rubato that can make even a chestnut-showpiece like Auber's "Laughing Song" from Manon Lescaut seem like a new experience, and her embellishments are original and interesting throughout the recital. Her Juliette is properly girlish, "Musetta's Waltz" is kittenish, Edwige's aria from the Offenbach rarity Robinson Crusoé is truly brilliant and in impeccable waltz time." ClassicsToday
