'I find this British singer's identification with Tchaikovsky almost uncanny. Having heard countless performances … in my native Russia, I was totally overcome by Rodgers' unaffectedness and sincerity … Her intonation is faultless, her Russian excellent. A rare treat indeed' (Vladimir Ashkenazy)

'A lovely record' (The Sunday Times)

'Any reviewer would have to comment on the beauty and poise of Joan Rodger's near flawless singing, Roger Vignoles's sensitive accompaniments, the excellent, nautral sound… This is a lovely album of Tchaikovsky songs' (American Record Guide, USA)
