About

This title was released for the first time in 2006.

hers is a voice in a million…she sings with such authority that one hangs on every note: her low register tingles the spine, and her upper register is gorgeously inflected.” - Michael Church, Album of the Week, The Independent, 14-20 October 2006, *****

The Cardiff Singer of the World finalist strikes a compelling balance between all-out passion and refined poetic nuance” - Andrew Stewart, Classic FM Magazine, July 2006

The voice is as generous in tone as the performer is in spirit. It's not actually the amplitude or firmness which impress most, rather the unstrained sense of musical control.” - Michael Dervan, The Irish Times, 26 May 2006

Both artists perform with prodigious spirit and engagement with their material, and the results are distinctly rewarding.” - George Hall, Opera Now, July/August 2006

Sementchuk and Gergieva maintain that exalted level to the end: great music-making” - David Nice, Choral & Song Choice, BBC Music Magazine, September 2006
