"It may well be the first time Milhaud's complete score has been available on disc ... It's an operatic curiosity well worth investigating, and musically it often turns out to be much more than that".

"It's certainly a bold choice for the non-professional orchestra and choral forces of the University of Michigan under Kenneth Kiesler, who provide a decent to good account of static, dignified pieces that really need all the help they can get".

"This release by Naxos constitutes one of the most important issues the gramophone has achieved for quite some time ... The work's overall conception is on the largest possible scale ... a work which still has the power to astonish ... This is a great performance of a great work ... Over and above that is the power and intensity of all the musicians taking part, clearly under Kiesler's inspiring direction ... Our thanks to the outstanding soloists, the University of Michigan and the various other bodies which have prepared this work with such devotion and responsibility".
