Todd: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

'Like most judicious entertainment for children, Todd's opera is nimble on its feet (69 minutes) and relying on quick changes of mood, colour and content to stop young minds from wandering … every number is different, ranging from soprano coloratura fireworks for a singing bottle … to—by far the best—the Caterpillar's Wonderland Blues, which Keel Watson turns into a showpiece cameo' (Gramophone)

She is a technically adroit performer, interpretatively slightly watchful rather than resonant, but inclined to risk very daring dynamics, and architecturally wholly on top of the six sonatas’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘Martin Roscoe captures every nuance with consummate virtuosity and a flair for negotiating the shifts in mood that characterise Dohnányi’s style.
