"Here is the perfect singing delivered by the kind of voice whose sheer beauty makes the hairs on the back of your neck prickly."
Classic FM Magazine

"Arguably the best lyric Mozart-Strauss soprano of her generation"

"The silvery warmth of her timbre, occassionally reminescent of Schwarzkopf in her earlier recordings, is the near-ideal instrument for Countess Almaviva and Fiordiligi."

Classical CD of the Week
The Sunday Times, Hugh Canning (31.10.2004)

"This is superlative Mozart singing by a soprano in her absolute prime."

"[Isokoski] spins a wonderfully pure line, with not a bump or bulge in sight: true, seamless legato singing may be a dying art, but on this evidence it's not dead yet. - - Isokoski's brilliant coloratura is in the demonstration class."
BBC Radio 3, Richard Wigmore (9.10.2004)

"This is superlative Mozart singing by a soprano in her absolute prime."
CD Review, BBC Radio 3

"Soile Isokoski has few, if any, peers as a Mozart singer today. Her sumptuous lyric soprano, creamy and even throughout its range, is in its absolute prime."
