Journal of Singing (National Association of Teachers of Singing), May 2010
The advanced editions…of this excellent series provides a wealth of classic repertoire, selected and presented to develop the skills needed to sing in a foreign language, and will doubtless prove a prime resource for teacher and students…..The reason these books take the Book of the Month slot is that the precision in every aspect of this book – the most valuable publications for the serious singer for some time – simply ooze with care and attention. The purpose is functional – aimed squarely at the highest level of education, but the pages carry a lot of the emotion of the editors, as well as that of the composers. Put simply: quite superb editions.
Mi Pro Magazine, December 2008
The books are such a tremendous achievement, and such a valuable addition to the singing teacher's armoury…
