The gramophone2019 SeptemberafafRichard Wigmore2019 September"Gramophone focus: The French contralto Delphine Galou has long proved herself a fine Vivaldi stylist and sings here with her trademark imagination and involvement ... Galou's singing always compels with its eloquence of phrase and urgent engagement with the text ... Galou and Accademia Bizzantina are likewise in their element in the disc of cantatas and opera arias ... Minor reservations aside, both discs are worthy of the consistently high standard set by the whole series. Galou fans and Vivaldi collectors alike should need no encouragement".
