The newest International singing sensation (TVNZ and Herald newspaper)
A stunning debut album(TVNZ Review)
The young soprano simply wowed her audience. A huge talent! (The Tubridy Show)
There was no denying she was the outstanding singer of the night, stunning and quite exceptional. First holding the audience spellbound with a "Sunset Boulevard" contribution eclipsed only by her contribution of the Ivor Novello Classic "Shine through my Dreams". Without a doubt. her's is the most wonderful voice it has been my privilege to hear. No matter how impressive the overall standard she remains in a class of her own.
(Robin Young- Sentinal and Belfast Telegraph)
