"Im Verhältnis zur Bedeutung der Oper ist die Ausbeute an Gesamtaufnahmen recht mager. Da ist jede neue Gazza ladra ein Ereignis, zumal es sich musikalisch um eine der besten Opern Rossinis handelt ... Alberto Zedda am Pult, einer der besten Rossini-Dirigenten überhaupt ... Den Stimmen selbst geht zuweilen die Puste aus; trotz gesangstechnischer Brillanz ... Doch bleibt trotz dieser Abstriche noch jede Menge übrig, um sich zu freuen ... Insgesamt also eine Empfehlung".

"A fine performance with lively interaction among the characters ... Zedda takes the work very seriously ... Maria José Moreno's voice has a bit of an edge, but this somehow adds to Ninetta's predicament, and she sounds suitably young. Lorenzo Regazzo's Podesta even sounds bullying in his patter song and almost pops through the speakers with character ... The rest of the cast is fine ... I'd stick with [this] new one, which has more theatrical flair".

"In this Wildbad performance he is very much master of his craft, conducting with a mixture of guile and élan ... the singing is more or less consistently stylish and sharply etched".
