As for "The Art of the Prima Donna," there cannot be any admirers who haven’t already got this, so for newcomers to Sutherland on disc one can only say -- listen and wonder. Her voice, even throughout its range right up to the high E, always keeping its natural quality, is heard at its early fullness.... Despite all the recordings that have come since, I cannot imagine anyone, coming to it for the first time, being disappointed in "The Art of the Prima Donna." ---Editorial Reviews, barnesandnoble.com
