"Carrying all of this emotional weight was soprano Berit Norbakken Solset, whose rendition of each song was astonishingly gorgeous, making them deeply moving. Nowhere more so
than in the third of the songs, ‘Perfume of the instant’, its enraptured, intimate
sensuality practically inducing the sensation of wafts of fragrance in the concert hall. Throughout the work, Solset made the music marvellously tactile, her voice seemingly communicating to each one of us in the audience personally. i can honestly say that if this was the last performance i ever heard, i would have died perfectly happily. Amazing."
(Simon Cummings (5:4) etter framføring av Kaija Saariaho‘s “Quatre Instants” på Nordic Music Days i Bodø, Norway, November 2019.)
"...Two vocal works are included: the cantata “Herminie” and “Air de l’Opéra Médée” The 15- minute cantata is, quite simply, a masterwork of vocal writing. It hints at what the
operatic world lost with Arriaga’s early death, Soprano Berit Norbakken Solset sings with a clear, pure tone that continually delights. Her delivery reinforces the stylistic similarities between Arriaga and Mozart..."

«...and so wonderfully performed, and the fabulous soprano, Berit Norbakken, who has exactly the right blend of straightness, so you can hear every note, but when she decides to open up, it ́s just fabulous, for me, it ́s got everything...»
