Soile Isokoski sings them very beautifully indeed…the same care for phrasing, ease of navigating those wide vocal lines, and intelligent projection of the text are clearly in evidence. She’s easily a match for Felicity Lott (Chandos) and Judith Howarth (Nightingale), and in truth all three are very good; but forced to choose Isokoski takes the prize.

Okko Kamu and the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra provide first class accompaniments, and the voice is very well balanced against the often large ensemble…this is a very welcome addition to the Strauss discography, and a release that further attests to Isokoski’s mastery of this repertoire. © ClassicsToday.com Read complete review

As it happened I listened to Brilliant Classics’ reissue of the Philips recording of Der Rosenkavalier from 1976 just hours before I played this present disc. On the old set Evelyn Lear was a great surprise as Marschallin, singing with deep and impeccable feeling for the text and the music. Isokoski probes even deeper, singing with more face.

In the earlier monologue—which on this disc comes second—she recalls the young woman who came fresh from the convent and was ordered into holy matrimony. She looks in the mirror, saying: Wo ist die jetzt?(Where is she

Critic’s Choice

The current release finds [Soile Isokoski] working with countryman Okko Kamu and a resilient, glistening Helsinki Philharmonic on [Richard Strauss’] rarely-heard Three Hymns (Op.71), plus more familiar excerpts from Der Rosenkavalier, Ariadne auf Naxos and Capriccio.

Isokoski’s voice remains in pristine shape, its steadiness and accuracy of pitch a joy to hear. Ariadne’s two monologues show exhilaratingly steady and controlled vocalism over a wide range. The Helsinki ensemble’s…admirably clean playing is persuasive. Isokoski sounds glowing and apt—and more emotionally transported…

The Drei-Hymnen, together lasting twenty-two and a half minutes
