DR musik2012 uge 05afafJens Cornelius2012 uge 05"Vurdering: Ugens cd" - "På Ugens Cd kan man møde en helt ukendt side af Telemann: Hans operaer. Han skrev mindst 30 operaer ... Mange af dem er gået tabt i årenes løb, og man har kun titlerne tilbage. Men det der findes lyder skønt, i hvert fald når der synges og spilles så godt som på Ugens Cd. Solisten er den baskiske sopran Nuria Rial. En sangerinde med en fantastisk smuk klang og en raffineret musikalitet. Hun synger med en vidunderlig vægtløshed, som klæder musikken elegance".
BBC music magazine2013 AugustafafNicholas Anderson2013 August"Vurdering: BBC music choral song choice" - "Her [Dorothee Mields] vocal quality, secure intonation and tasteful use of ornamentation characterise performances that are further enhanced by her sensibility to music and text like. This attractive disc is no mere litany of arias extracted from larger works, but a thoughtfully constructed programme ... A delight from start to finish".
BBC music magazine2012 MarchafafAnne Picard2012 March"Nuria Rial's enchanting recital with the Basel Chamber Orchestra comprises high-quality arias ... The orchestral performance is beautifully poised to support Rial's serene soprano voice".
Fono Forum2012 JanuarafafMatthias Hengelbrock2012 Januar"Nurial Rial singt mit grosser Emphase, überzeugender Beweglichkeit und ansprechendem Timbre ... Das Kammerorchester Basel agiert auf der vorderen Stuhlkante, und Julia Schröder gestaltet zwei Violinkonzerte, die ursprünglich als Opernouvertüren dienten, mit viel Vehemenz und Fantasie".
The gramophone2013 JuneafafDavid Vickers2013 June"Vurdering: Gramophone choice" - "It is hard to think of a better specialist german Baroque soprano than Mields at the momnet; her flawless tone, awareness of instrumental interplay, delivery of poetry and shapely phrasing provide nothing but undiluted pleasure".
The gramophone2012 MarchafafDavid Vickers2012 March"Telemann's operas .. deserve the thumbnail introduction provided by Nuria Rial's delightful performances of extracts from five different operas ... Julia Schröder demonstrates her skills as soloist in two contrasting violin concertos ... My sole criticism is the substandard editing of the booklet".
International record review2012 FebruaryafafMarc Rochester2012 February"Vurdering: IRR outstanding" - "This has all the ingredients of a genuinely outstanding recording. First it has a star singer, Nuria Rial ... The disc predominantly displays the crystalline purity of her voice and her rich seam of eloquent lyricism. Her precise and fluting upper register is the most impressive vocal attribute in evidence here ... Secondly it features a genuinely virtuoso instrumental soloist. Julia Schröder ... Thirdly it has absolutely first-rate orchestral support ... But do they result in a truly outstanding recording? Without a shadow of a doubt, yes".
