Awards and reviews

March/April 2021

The Trial at Rouen is one of the finds of the year, a religious opera in the same league as Poulenc’s Dialogues of the Carmelites—and believe me when I say Dello Joio commands a wider harmonic and expressive range than Poulenc and more warmth than Hindemith.

October 2021

Gil Rose’s excellent forces offer impressive work, led by two first-rate singers. Heather Buck performs the title role with her usual precision and musical acuity, and also makes the Maid’s ordeal sincerely moving.
