Une poignée de bons chanteurs engonce loyalement la production
17 Jul 17 / Anaclase
There is something slightly discomfiting in the tricksy production director Orpha Phelan offers here
8 Jul 17 / The Oxford Times
Among the singers, the soprano, Elizabeth Atherton, as Leonore/Fidelio emerged as the real star of the show
8 Jul 17 / Stratford-upon-Avon Herald
As Leonore, Elizabeth Atherton produces a very clean, pure and accurate sound
5 Jul 17 / Music OMH
That this Fidelio is merely frustrating counts as something of a success
29 Jun 17 / The Spectator
A challenging, provocative and highly rewarding evening
29 Jun 17 / Independent
Impressive singing in Longborough Fidelio
27 Jun 17 / Bachtrack
It’s a miracle that the music makes any headway
