"Miguel Ulla has a nicely sonorous and quite clear voice, with excellent intonation and a good sense of the emotions of the text. His phrasing emphasizes the vagaries of the text, allowing Handel's often lyrical music to emerge with considerable sensitivity. While this set of works may make a short, perhaps even pithy program, this is one that is finely tuned and shows that Ulla has a great future in this sort of Baroque repertoire."

"Ulla's voice is full and particularly rich in its lower reaches, but not plummy. His voice is free, too, with no intrusive 'h's to the more florid passages. [...] Ulla offers an interior painting here, his decorations full of expression and pain. There is real dignity here."

"Miguel Ulla, excelente contratenor gallego, nos obsequia con un delicioso disco de cantatas profanas de Haendel. Si bien existe un innumerable registro de buenas grabaciones de este repertorio, lo cierto es que pocos cantantes se atreven a ofrecer una versión versión minimalista de estas obras: solamente una voz acompañada de cuerda pulsada (tiorba, archilaúd y guitarra barroca de manera alternativa). El resultado es un Haendel minimalista, reducido a la mínima expresión. En el siglo XXI nos gustan los grandes formatos, con bajos continuos descomunales, a veces incluso exagerados para el tipo de obras de que se trata. El resultado de esta grabación es una compenetración absoluta entre Miguel Ulla y Fernando Reyes, llena de musicalidad y buena dicción del texto".

"The simple and successful instrumentation of these Handel pieces, applied by Miguel Ulla and Fernando Reyes, frees the voice from the constraints imposed by an ornate instrumentation, allowing it to project all the splendor of the melody, enveloped by a plucked string that allows it to breathe and develop. Perhaps we are listening to these cantatas as they sounded in those eighteenth-century palazzi."
