"….thrilling account of the Act IV duet with Count di Luna, here sung by Sebastian Catana, a tall baritone young enough to be convincingly in love with Leonora.  Taking on di Luna for the first time, he handled “Il balen” with suave vocalism and phrasing.  The previously mentioned duet was truly sung, without resorting to the breathlessness that afflicts some baritones."
