'Trpčeski embraces both works with dazzling wit and energy, but also rapt reflection in the slow movements. The real treasure lies in the Second Piano Trio.'
The Scotsman
'In this program, American mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey once again shows the full range of her performing skills in dramatic and equally sensitive interpretations.'
Pizzicato
'Wonderfully accompanied by Cristian Măcelaru, the new conductor of the National Orchestra of France, the two concertos display an unfettered youthfulness'
MAD, Le Soir
Recommended: 'The performance is splendid with not a hint of Gothic Voices handling the music with kid gloves. They really let rip.'
MusicWeb International
Editor's Choice: '...the American mezzo captures every facet of the emperor’s frighteningly mercurial personality, particularly in the world premiere recording of Scarlatti’s astonishing La Morte di Nerone ...'
Presto Music
'Technical brilliance and said wit are certainly provided for in this performance, with Macelaru and the Janáček Philharmonic bestowing solid accompaniment throughout.'
MusicWeb International
'Some will prefer to hear boys singing this music, not just for authenticity, but also for the spontaneity that they bring to the music ... this new CD is outstanding
Fanfare
Recommended: 'The slow movement of K271 on this disc is simply superb. Her way with the cadenza, as with all the cadenzas in both concertos, is full of fantasy and spontaneity.'
