Early Music Review February 2015
a remarkable testament to the man’s [Festa’s] intellectual and imaginative powers.
Awards Issue 2005
Maria Cristina Kiehr… brings a nice wryness to the mild plaint of 'Ohimè ch'io cado'. Stephan MacLeod blends in well… Jean-Marc Aymes directs with spirit and plays with a fine set of variations by Frescobaldi on the claviorganum.
5th August 2015
It's an entertaining, sensibly varied sequence, beautifully sung, especially by Kiehr, who makes wonderfully expressive use of shading to bleach her voice of all colour at one moment and make it seductively honeyed the next, and which is supported with sparky instrumental playing by the members of Concerto Soave.
