Reviews: "A major singer with complete technical control (including perfect command of messa di voce), authority of delivery, [and] opulence of tone...In fact, much of her singing reminded one of the young Callas." The New York Daily News. *  "Capable of both graceful phrasing and dramatic intensity...she has a good deal of power and range at her command." The New York Times.
