DIAPASON D'OR

'… ce programme vient nous rappeler le vrai talent de cette Arménienne … Les Variations Haendel sont, et l'on pèse ces mots, tout simplement les plus belles qu'il ait été donné d'entendre: d'un ton, d'une maîtrise, d'un style fabuleux, d'un stupéfiant équilibre entre tension et tendresse, elles sont la perfection d'un bout à l'autre, bouleversantes jusqu'à la gigantesque Fugue qui n'a jamais été chantée à ce point' (Diapason, France)
