"Here is Cheryl Studer...The voice is full-blooded and warm, yet flexible enough to encompass the difficulties of Act 1...beautifully focused in the succeeding aria, with a nicely differentiated treatment of the second verse (happily included)." (Gramophone)
"Here is Cheryl Studer, a Violetta with seemingly practically all the attributes her demanding music requires. The voice is full-blooded and warm, yet flexible enough to encompass the difficulties of Act 1, a trifle heavy perhaps at the rising phrase on "allor", marked dolcissimo in the duet with Alfredo, but beautifully focused in the succeeding aria, with a nicely differentiated treatment of the second verse (happily included). Particularly felicitous is the way Studer carries over the voice from "error" to "sentia che amore" and follows the injunction con espansione."
(Gramophone)
