(…) a voice with an exceptionally beautiful, and at the same time individual timbre, lirico spinto type. Round, noble, focused and at the same time rich in aliquots. She has developed such an excellent technique that this voice is fully obedient to her, it seems that she can sing everything with it... (…) Piotr Nędzyński
