"Laurent Pelly's 2012 Covent Garden production ... was less succesful, experiencing numerous casting alterations and not much liked by the critics ... His staging ... offers a garishly coloured satirical romp through the original, rather than a serious exposition of its themes ... Meyerbeer's vocal writing demands virtuoso singing , and receives that here. Bryan Hymel hurls himself unstintingly at the title role, impossible high notes and all. Marina Poplavskaya suggests the spiritual inspiration of Alice ... Daniel Oren's conducting needs more conviction. Overall, it's a mixed result".

"Hymel deals skilfully with the title-role, reaching up to the high Cs, even at one point a D, with impressive ease. His nemesis, the devilish Bertram, is firmly sung by bass John Relyea ... Ciofi rises to some heartfelt singing in Isabelle's big solo ... Oren gets excellent contributions from the orchestra and chorus".
