"Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques draw the fire and flood from a score that is the true godfather of Fidelio, Der Freischutz and much Wagner ... Nadja Michael's identification with the title-role, physically and vocally, is first-rate and borders (rightly) on the psychotic, while Kurt Streit (in heroic dreadlocks) is ideal as the weak, indecisive, torn Jason ... Every aspect of this production is a triumph vindicating Cherubini's forward-looking genius".
