'She shows outstanding artistry in expressing the characters’ suffering and rage, despair and desire for revenge. This is Baroque in all its grandeur, all its splendor and all its drama.'

'Tara Erraught delivers polished, expressive performances and the Irish Baroque Orchestra offer taut, idiomatic readings of the orchestral selections while serving also as consummate accompanists. Very highly recommended.'
Fanfare
'Ticciati and the Deutsche Symphonie-Orchester savour all these facets, with relish, skilfully, always transparently. A pleasure and a discovery.'
SWR2 Treffpunkt Klassik
2021 Jazz Critics Poll #16: '... it succeeds at creating fascinating, multicultural worlds of sound that incorporate the leader’s Iraqi-American heritage with advanced Western classical and jazz concepts.'
The Arts Fuse
'This recording shows a Collegium Vocale in fine form, especially masterful in the chorus, with energetic and balanced conducting.'
Scherzo
'It’s a brilliant pairing, as they are the young(ish) female superstars of their respective instruments, and already have a reputation for performances of blazing individuality.'
The Daily Telegraph
'This immersion in the pulsating heart of the lyrical heroines of the Grand Siècle confirms it: from now on, this conductor and his young ensemble must be counted on to carry the colours of great form high!'
Opéra Magazine
Opera Choice: 'This is perfect ground for Lindsey and Cohen ... Her extraordinary vocal evocations are complemented throughout by the subtle and inflected playing of the Arcangelo group.'
BBC Music Magazine
Excepcional: 'García Alarcón rarely misses the mark, but this time he manages to outdo himself: this is one of those recordings that relentlessly touches the depths of the spirit. The two sopranos are sublime ...'
