‘’Seldom is one able to hear such superb casting and exceptionally good singers, everyone being a top choice for their role. But the real hero is Dmitrij Kitajenko whose direction of this beautiful yet often neglected opera is magnificent. The Cologne forces respond wholeheartedly to his conducting and the recorded sound is great. Undoubtedly, this Iolanta is the ultimate reference recording of Tchaikovsky’s work.‘‘
