Editorial Reviews

Gramophone - Great Britain, June 1997

Bekova ideally matches Larin’s art as a singer... the Mussorgsky songs performed with startling power, demonstrating the great depth of her resources.

Opera News - USA, January 1998

The pianist, Eleonora Bekova, delights us with the varied palette of colours and expressiveness of the piano accompaniment.
