An] enjoyable [anthology] of arias sacred and secular… performances that would be hard to better in expressivity, quality of tone and diction, intonation, control of vibrato, and absence of technical strain.… =The recording is as clear as a frosty morning, the acoustic spacious, and the balance exemplary.… A disc I shall often return to… Warmly recommended.
