CRITIC REVIEW:
"Set Svanholm is an excellent Aeneas, rising to every vocal and dramatic challenge in this demanding role in top form. Kjerstin Dellert is a vivid and compelling Cassandre. Her attractive, strong, clear voice commands attention in her powerful scenes. Kerstin Meyer, at the beginning of her international career, is every bit Queen Didon, singing with sumptuous voice."
