"By releasing these superlative accounts in this, the year in which Josef Suk turns eighty, the BBC has found an ideally appropriate way of honouring one of the Czech Republic's - and, indeed, the world's - greatest living musicians. We, as lovers of classical music, are most fortunate to be the beneficiaries. Be sure not to miss out." -MusicalCriticism.com

"Fleming is not just a strong lyric soprano, but arguably the reigning diva de nos jours, and the poster girl of the Met's 2008-09 season. She gave a heart breaking account of the title role, in wonderfully fresh voice that seemed to bend to her will without any apparent technical effort or calculation. Her Song to the Moon, almost an entrance aria, was remarkable for pliant phrasing and beautifully finished lines that demonstrated her magnificent breath control." -MusicalCriticism.com
