Reviews

“Herrarna i Orphei drängar gör bästa möjliga jobb, fylligt och elastiskt, ofta i tandem med Norrköpings symfoniorkester” – Alexander Agrell, Sydsvenskan, 28/11 2012

“Emellanåt är det överjordiskt vackert” – Björn G. Stenberg, UNT, 28/11 2012

“Orphei Drängar glider ledigt mellan lyrisk värme, studentikosa nyanser (”Good morning”) och en mäktig manskörshyllning till rätten att få vara den man är (”I am what I am”)” – Johanna Paulsson, DN, 28/11 2012
