"Ugens album: På Ugens Album synger Florian Boesch lieder af Schumann og Mahler, og man hører hans helt specielle evne til at sætte de enkelte fraser under lup ... Subtile, inderlige udtryk håndteres med fantastisk sikkerhed, og det bliver til tyske lieder der næppe kan udføres bedre".

"The haunting Berg songs are creamily sung and make an apt interlude between the two Schumann cycles. They are not among my personal favourite songs in that I find them a little self-conscious and saccharine but I cannot imagine any aficionado being disappointed by such musically flawless singing and playing".

"Den sølvskinnende tyske sopran Dorothea Röschmann løfter dem [Frauenliebe] trods et lidt hurtigt, dirrende vibrato med stærk indlevelseskraft. Schumanns Liederkreis ... ånder ikke helt så medrivende ... Men pianisten Mitsuko Uchida følger og bærer med nænsom, diskret perfektion. Hendes klaverspil er i særklasse, og i Alban Bergs mere ekspansivt anlagte syv tidlige sange kan Dorothea Röschmann åbne sin klang og opnår både sødme og sanselighed".

"Julius Drake is perfectly attuned to the palette of shifting colours in Finley's dark baritone - here in top form".

"There are curiousities aplenty: three ballads for declamation, finely recited by Christoph Bantzer; a gypsy octet, complete with tambourine and triangle; and, most touchingly of all, Schumann's setting of his own poem to accompany the gift os a piano to his beloved Clara".

"Boesch's flexible and rich-grained baritone blends with the colourful support of Malcolm Martineau at the piano to offer splendidly characterised accounts of the Schumann ... It's in the Mahler, though, that Boesch and Martineau reach new heights ... The emotional impact is devastating".

"Dass Anne Schwanewilms dem Finallied [Schumann] bei allem emotionalen Engagement den letzten Jubelton schuldig bleibt ... scheint also eine Sache persönlicher Impulsivität ... Die Wolf-Kollektion stellt Anne Schwanewilms ... ein denkbar gutes Zeugnis aus ... Auch dank, Manuel Lange".

"There are lovely things here. But given that Anne Schwanewilms is one of the finest singers of our time, there should be more. Partly it's a matter of her vocal condition: often she sounds strained as she goes above the stave ... Partly I think it's the placing of the microphones".

"The whole disc, once I'd adjusted to the sound, seemed the perfect Lieder recital".

"To uhyre kompetente musikere ... Röschmann er fremragende til at karakterisere og farve de enkelte ord, og Uchida meddigter fornemt med et klaverspil, der med søvngængeragtig sikkerhed smyger sig om Röschmanns stemme ... Ikke desto mindre forløser Röschmann og Uchida ikke til fulde Schumanns lieder ... Til gengæld ... med al deres akkuratesse Alban Bergs lieder".

"This new recording shows a greater richness in Finley's voice plus an evolving intimacy in his approach to recording Lieder, one that retreats from the word-by-word vocal painting of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau".

"Vurdering: Editor's choice" - "Another Schumann must, with Royal in glorious form in a wonderful cycle".

"A performance that momentarily convinces you the piano-accompanied version [of Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen] is preferable to the better-known orchestral version, with much credit going to Malcolm Martineau who generally displays more temperament than the baritone ... The profound sense of leave-taking in the final Wayfarer song draws some of the most coloristically subtle singing I've yet heard from Boesch".

"Right from the start, we get a sense of the quality in store - Röschmann's interpretative imagination, Uchida's supremely honed touch - even if it's clearly the German soprano in the driving seat ... Röschmann's many fans will need no encouragement, and nor will those with a more general interest in Lieder. I'm impatient to hear more".
