"So funktioniert Europa im kulturellen Glücksfall: Eine englische Sängerin singt mit Begleitung eines finnischen Orchesters französische Lieder für ein schwedisches Plattenlabel. Das Ergebnis ist rundum überzeugend ... Man muss die Sängerin Carolyn Sampson bewundern, die mit nach wie vor wunderbar aufblühendem Sopran für alle Stimmungen und Stile den richtigen Ton findet, mal jungmädchenhaft-naiv (Lo fiolairé), mal mütterlich warm (Brezaiola, Per l'efon), mal keck und übermütig (Tchut, tchut) oder auch präzise komödiantisch (Oï ayaï, Lou coucut). Die Tapiola Sinfonietta zeigt unter dem französischen Maestro Pascal Rophé viel Einfühlung in das Idiom der Musik, glänzt in instrumentalen Details und geht auch in die Vollen, wo Canteloube es nahe legt".

"Recording of the month: Joseph Canteloube published the first four sets of his Chants d'Auvergne between 1923 and 1930 ... I'm not going to beat about the bush: I enjoyed the music-making enormously. Carolyn Sampson is on terrific form. Her diction is excellent and the sheer sound of her voice gave me consistent pleasure ... I really enjoyed this SACD. Carolyn Sampson is a delightful and highly engaging soloist ... Every track on this new SACD is a treat ... Recordings of the Year: This one is certain to be high on my personal shortlist".

"En meget smuk cd, den anden med orkestersange af Joseph Chanteloube med Véronique Gens (Langeland i sommer, Radiohuset i det nye år). Det er en atmosfærefyldt og liflig musikalsk vandring i den smukkeste franske natur og ikke mindst Auvergnes".

"Chants d'Auvergne 2 bringer nogle af sangene fra Auvergne-samlingen, de tre sange i Triptyque og et udvalg af Chants de France. Serge Baudo dirigerer til sopransang af fornemt karat".

"The voice is bright, forward, notably clear in diction and lightly responsive to nuance, backed by prominet woodwind and lean strings ... Gens is the choice for those who find opulence overbearing in such frisky material".

"Tapiola Sinfonietta in perfekter Balance ... Pascal Rophé hat sich seit vielen Jahren als authentischer Verfechter der französischen Musik einen Namen gemacht, und die Sopranistin Sampson harmonisiert perfekt mit dem finnischen Kammerorchester. Eine fundierte Ergänzung zur Diskografie der beliebsten Werke".

"Soprano Carolyn Sampson now joins the long lines of singers ... who have been attracted to Canteloube's labor of love with a selection of 25 songs. Her characterisation is superb ...The Tapiola Sinfonietta under Pascal Rophé are equally spirited, with shimmering strings and plenty of woodwind colour captured sumptuously by BIS's SACD sound ... There is so much to admire here, and yet niggles also accumulate ... Such frustrations aside, though, few can match Sampson's overall sense of exuberant joy in these wonderful songs".

"There's a lot of classy competition when it comes to recordings of Canteloube's 'Chants d'Auvergne' but happily this new BIS disc featuring sopran Carolyn Sampson will settle comfortably in their company ... Sampson's soprano is bright and coquettish ... There is plenty of character and expression to her singing ... Sampson gets her tongue around the notoriously difficult-to-learn Auvergne dialect, derived from Occitan, nimbly. Each character is brought vividly to life ... This is as enjoyable a selection of Canteloube's songs as you will currently find and admirers of this soprano - or this delightful music - need not hesitate".
