“…her genuinely involving interpretation founded on her flawless lyricism and keenly expressive dramatic intent: a pretty unbeatable combination."
The Stage – George Hall
“She sang gloriously, floating exquisite pianissimos, yet cutting through Wagner’s tubbiest orchestral textures. And she looked and acted the part: a dreamy ingenue fatally obsessed with a romanticised legend...”
The Times – Richard Morrison
“Her utterly secure and well-paced portrayal encompassed the part’s ethereal weightlessness and the shining amplitude required for her confrontation with Ortrud, and she took the vocal honours with her evenly produced silvery tone.”
Opera Magazine – John Allison
“...Davis sings Handel with wonderful finesse. Davis’ voice gleams at the top and her coloratura is exacting in its precision.”
