"Impressive from start to finish, Antoinette Dennefeld in the title role radiates the silky homogeneity of her voice, golden like her hair. The mezzo-soprano gives the impression of never forcing, rich in all registers, sharp in her phrasing, flexible in her line." Mathieu Chenal for 24heures

"...she is a Carmen of great class. Far from the caricatured, provocative Carmen, Antoinette Dennefeld offers a bohemian of attractive nature and natural beauty. {...} Vocally perfectly prepared, she dominates the stage with no desire to shine for herself. Involved, possessed by her character, she exists far beyond the demands of the production. With just the right amount of voice, she never exceeds the needs of theatrical expression. No shouts, no stridency, her vocal Carmen is an example of interpretative intelligence and lyrical singing." Jacques Schmitt for ResMusica
