San Francisco Chronicle

... his (Maltman's) voice is at once lithe and weighty, with a mahogany color that he can bring out or sheathe as required ... With Saint-Gil’s exquisitely crafted accompaniments tending in the same direction, one piece after another emerged with all its textural and musical details in place.

Gramophone Magazine

With this superbly executed recital, Maltman leaps in a single bound into the front rank of Lieder interpreters today.

Seen and Heard International

Christopher Maltman’s singing was superb throughout the evening as was his characterisation of and identification with the words and music. I deliberately chose not to follow the words in the programme, preferring to focus on the performers. I had no need to read the words in any case since Maltman’s diction was crystal clear all evening.

San Francisco Classical Voice

The extremes Maltman easily achieved … are all the marks of an exceptional artist.
