'Frances Gregory's Frauenliebe, Opus 60, partnered sensitively by Richard Gowers, impressed at many levels: characterisation, personality, style. In particular, through the nine songs, her subtly changing inflections and body language conveyed a believable thirty-minute journey from girlhood and obsession to bereavement and old age. There was real beauty and artistry in this performance ... and a wealth of musical roads to share: 'Du Ring an meinem Finger' stays with me, a little dream of fragrant perfection.' - Classical Source (2019)

'...the excellent Frances gregory' - The Evening Standard (2018)

'...the Sycorax of Frances Gregory, whose ample richly toned voice gives pathos as well edge to her several arias.' - Bachtrack (2018)

'As Egeo, Frances Gregory used her firm, rich sound impressively - always responsive and expressive - to convey regality and indignation in equal measure...' - Opera Today (2018)

'Frances Gregory as Egeo revealed an extremely sumptuous mezzo-soprano...' - Music OMH (2018)

'Frances Gregory is dependable as his jealous wife Juno, compared with her somewhat squally accomplice of Emilie Cavallo's Iris, though both achieve notable vocal agility, making them natural Handelian singers (both made fine contributions to the concert performance of Teseo at this year's London handel Festival).' - Classical Source (2018)

'Frances Gregory maintained cool dignity throughout, providing a point of dramatic steadiness...' - Classical Source (2018)

'Frances Gregory offered a Juno not to be trifled with, who yet certainly maintained and projected feelings of her own.' - Boulezian (2018)

'Frances Gregory's rich mezzo evinced Sycorax's regal righteousness, but she also conveyed the sorceress' pain with bittersweet poignancy.' - Opera Magazine (2018)

'Gregory is fearless and commanding in an incredibly difficult role' - The Guardian (2018)

'Here Egeo was sung by mezzo-soprano Frances Gregory, who has a lovely, well-modulated voice and finely musical technique.' - Planet Hugill (2018)

'The stand-out turn though, is mezzo-soprano Frances Gregory as the wronged witch Sycorax. Hers is the performance that draws us in.' - The Times (2018)
