"Nicole Wacker, for her part, is certainly the surprise of the evening: the pleasantness of the fresh (but not simply young) timbre combines masterfully with the ease in coloratura singing; the intonation never wavers, even in the most difficult passages - the cadence of the first aria, the staccato of the second -, but the sound never loses its shine, bringing to mind certain French sopranos of times gone by, such as Pons or Robin."
