To Love
"The soprano’s voice is clear and controlled, limpid but full of quiet strength, bright and healthy but with the slightest hint of a quivering vibrato...She’s especially fine in the slower, seductive numbers, to which she brings a tender urgency and sensuality...In short: a recital that bristles with life and love, at once engaging, beguiling and moving. Highly recommended."
Gramophone Magazine - March 2021
"Devos’s genuine affection for this repertoire shines through…With Britten’s cycle On this Island, Devos’s sheer accuracy and panache outshines many sopranos on record."
