Awards and reviews

December 2018

This new studio recording should satisfy anyone who fancies investigating an offbeat slice of 18th-century operatic history. The young cast all have the requisite fluent coloratura technique and dramatize as vividly as their music allows. The silvery-toned Robin Johannsen, as a Dido by turns touching and commanding, contrasts just sufficiently with Olivia Vermeulen’s warmer mezzo as Aeneas.

April 2019

The young Dutch mezzo Olivia Vermeulen is an impressive Enea, the voice’s fast vibrato deployed effectively to project both the character’s princely pride and softer remorse with equal expressiveness and intensity…[Robin Johannsen’s] Didone confirms her as one of today’s most talented young sopranos.
