From Letter V: 

"Three familiar Purcell songs, “Fairest Isle” (from “King Arthur”), “Music for a While” and “If Music Be the Food of Love,” and three by Dowland, “By a Fountain,” “Time Stands Still” and “Shall I Sue,” showcased soprano Jessica Petrus and tenor Owen McIntosh. Both proved to be estimable early music stylists, Petrus with an achingly lovely, low-vibrato “white” tone that especially suited the more yearning and lovelorn Dowland numbers, McIntosh with a more assertive, theatrical style that paid special dividends in the Shakespeare setting."

From The Boston Classical Review

"The first, “Denn das Gesetz,” beautifully performed by Tengblad, Thea Lobo, and Jessica Petrus, was the standout and spotlighted the charm of Bach’s melodies."

From The Boston Classical Review
"In the concert’s first half, the ensemble split into smaller choirs of four and five singers each to alternate works by John Sheppard, William Byrd and the self-taught American composer William Billings, giving sopranos Sonja Tengblad and Jessica Petrus and altos Clare McNamara and Stephanie Kacoyanis the chance to shine in more intimate settings." --Aaron Keebaugh

From The San Diego Story
"Let me start with the more astonishing singers...Jessica Petrus’ brilliant, agile soprano brought apt elation to her lively arias, and her understated cadenzas were both exciting and tasteful." --Ken Herman
