"The musical performance has its own distinction, as well as complete integration with the staging concept." (Gramophone)

" It's a strong cast, led by Drabowicz's nobly-voiced, savage Don, and Youn's powerful Leporello." (BBC Music Magazine)

"A fully rounded piece of work...Coherent production, perfectly staged, impeccable singers." (El Periodico)

"Musically much better than the London version – Véronique Gens makes a wonderful Donna Elvira, confident, strong, perfect both in her singing and acting." (El Pais)
