– Bræin sings with unaffected purity in Nice, che fa? Che pensa?, the brief yet lovely Chi rapì la pace al core? (Kjos’s imaginative realisation and passing dissonances fitting the tormented final aria like a glove), and Lungi dal mio bel nume; her ornamentation is graceful and she has an admirably neat trill [The Gramophone]
