Top 10 Classical Albums of 2020

"... This album made me cry, laugh, dream, yearn, and think hard about what life demands from us. It’s far and away the best vocal music I’ve heard in a long time." — Jonah Pearl

International Classical Music Awards 2021

“Prohaska and Drake's intriguing programme of songs tells us all about Eve.” *****

Steve Moffatt – Limelight.com.au – 28 August 2020

*** Good Album

Olivier Brunel - Classica magazine (France) - June-August 2020

"... A heady selection of songs to intoxicate the senses; vivid storytelling and musicality." ****

Michael Beek - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - July 2020

“… Prohaska’s Eisler is excellent, and we could perhaps do with a whole disc of it... He, [Drake], characteristically, is exemplary throughout, beautifully expressive and always alert to the subtle shifts of meaning of each song. It’s a challenging recital that in some ways surveys a greater subject than can adequately be contained on a single disc. But the best of it is very fine and infinitely rewarding.”

Tim Ashley - Gramophone magazine - July 2020

"... In 25 carefully chosen songs we receive a kaleidoscope of disparate moods, styles and messages that hang together remarkably seamlessly. At the same time each song is a valuable gem in its own right, and the playing and singing is overwhelmingly sensitive and expressive. I do urge readers to listen to the cycle from beginning to end without interval for the overall experience. After that: feel free to pick and choose individual numbers, even though I believe many will want to play it all over again from the beginning. Most of all I urge all readers to invest in this disc without delay. You won’t regret the outlay."
