. . . this production by John Dexter is worth looking at . . . This is class all the way, scenically and musically . . . Under Levineżs taut direction, this performance surges with magnificent singing and dramatic interaction.
Record Review / Peter M. Knapp, The Patriot Ledger / 01. July 2006
Für Sammler von Aufführungen in Star-Besetzung ein Muss.
Record Review / Wilhelm Sinkovicz, Die Presse/Schaufenster / 18. November 2005
Sincérité et męme défonce chez les protagonistes sont exemplaires . . . Un spectacle royal.
Record Review / Timothée Picard, André Tubeuf, Classica - Repertoire (Paris) / 01. December 2005
Domingo demeure le plus séduisant des Carlo, et forme avec Freni . . . un couple quasi idéal . . . Ghiaurov: une voix imposante, la stature et lżhumanité dżun souverain blessé . . . La direction de Levine est la vitalité incarnée.
Record Review / Michel Parouty, Diapason (Paris) / 01. July 2006
