"The singing is buoyant, the playing of Le Concert Spirituel under Hervé Niquet affectionate and uplifting - one of the more imaginative tributes for the composer's 350th anniversary year." (Financial Times)
"The story is sophisticated light entertainment. The music, however, is first-rate and stylishly performed by Niquet, his solo team and the band's players and chorus." (Sunday Times)
"Few ensembles do French baroque as well as Le Concert Spirituel with their conductor Hervé Niquet. There's a real understanding here of the innate sexiness of this music. The orchestral and choral sound is wonderfully rich without ever turning pompous." (Guardian)
