"This is wonderful light entertainment for a summers evening. It really is a Wonderful Town. It goes straight to the top of my list of favourite recordings for 2005".

"There's much to like about this Toulon performance. The cast is a strong one - dominated by the excellent, sassy Ruth of Jasmine Roy ... Larry Blank he appears to be doing nothing more than beating time. Animated he is not, but the orchestra still delivers Bernstein's score in a colourful and snappy way ... The video direction of this stage production is very good and the sound quality is similarly successful".

"The perfomance itself, while undeniably of a high standard, is too off-the-cuff, literally a succesion of party-pieces".

"Als schöne, rosarote, mit ganz viel raffiniertem Tanz aufgepeppte New-York-Fantasie empfiehlt sich zum ausgeklungenen Leonard-Bernstein-Jahr noch dessen frühes Musical Wonderful Town ... Oliver Bénézech inszeniert das in Toulon metierkundig leicht und sexy, das Ensemble ist fein, nicht nur im Conga, und das Orchester macht Spass. Was für ein Vergnügen".
