CD Reviews

Remarkable light opera delight - so musical, so whimsical

Cultura Locura | San Francisco, CA, USA | 11/08/2009

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The voice of Claudia Novikova is just delightful - a new discovery for me. Her laughter in the aria "Song of the Laugh" in particular is amazing - so natural yet perfectly on pitch, perfect in timing. I feel like I'm in a small theater somewhere, carried away with the voices. Obukhova is another find. Some of the tracks are a bit scratchy, transferred from 78's, but if you put that aside, the vocal quality is warm, whimsical, and a perfectly light touch that takes me soaring."
