Содержание диска говорит об очень высоком уровне таланта композитора у Дидье Маруани (по крайней мере в то время). Часть 3 оперы я долго считал самой лучшей инструментальной композицией из всех, что я когда-либо слышал. Недалеко от неё стоит и седьмая часть оперы. Эти две композиции подлинно обессмертили этот альбом. В целом, этот альбом является лучшим у Дидье Маруани.

Чарльз Ха́рдин Хо́лли (англ. Charles Hardin Holley), известный как Ба́дди Хо́лли (англ. Buddy Holly; - американский певец и автор песен, один из первопроходцев рок-н-ролла. Несмотря на то, что его успех продолжался всего полтора года (будучи лишь 22-летним он погиб в авиакатастрофе), критик Брюс Эдер описал его личность как «самую влиятельную созидательную силу в раннем рок-н-ролле».

Given his versatility -- skipping from opera to art song, and even Broadway show tunes with an enviable ease -- Bryn Terfel is the perfect candidate to pull off what so many operatic stars try without success: a musically satisfying crossover album. Unfortunately, this isn't it. The opening "Toréador" from Carmen is over-sung and lacks style; the folk songs, like "Danny Boy" and "Shenandoah," and even the Welsh "Bugeilo'r Gwenith Gwyn" are shapeless and bombastic; and in general, these favorites are sorely missing the expressive imagination, soul, and vocal charisma that made Terfel such a star.
