“Damrau bring both these vignettes to vivid life, trilling and waltzing through 'Lo spazzacamino' with gleeful abandon, and softening her natural diamantine brilliance when the gypsy girl momentarily reflects on an uncertain future. She's just as captivating as the proto-feminist protagonist of Stornello...[Freidrich Haider] matches Damrau all the way in devil-may-care zest.”

“[Damrau] has the more exuberant songs, in which she is fully home, tossing off the sprightliness...of 'Lo spazzacamino' and the bolero rhythm of 'La zingara' but holding the line of the more serious 'Perduta ho la pace'...Edelmann does not use a vast range of vocal colours in his singing...but I did not find him a dull interpreter. Perhaps 'storyteller' would be a more appropriate word than 'interpreter', and his tone is not one of hue or weight only.”
