"The young Aida Gimeno pleasantly surprised us, caught on the snare just a few days before the performance. She is a potential lyric. She has a well-pitched voice, equal and extensive, easy and reflective.".
Arturo Reverter - Beckmesser
"The soprano Aida Gimeno sang the "Domine Deus" angelically with a crystalline and luminous voice, supported by the pietistic voices of the choir and the dialogue of enchanting richness of timbres. . "
