  2. ↑ Independent - review "The collection includes excerpts from Simon Boccanegra, the role that has most helped usher in this phase of the singer's career, along with strong performances revealing the dignity and self-knowledge of Macbeth in his final aria, "Perfidi! All'anglo contro me v'unite!", and negotiating Triboulet's shift from anger to supplication in "Cortigiani, vil razza dannata" from Rigoletto."
