“The gossamer delicacy of the serenade, just the right touch of theatricality in the symphony, and the delectable frothiness of the Concerto for flute and harp, often dismissed as ambient music, are borne of the refined and perfectly judged finesse of this performance by Timothy Hutchins and Valérie Milot […]”
CHRISTOPHE HUSS, LE DEVOIR – APRIL 19 2019

“The perfect accord between the harpist and the orchestra and Mathieu Lussier was evidenced in the transition from Debussy’s Danse sacrée to his Danse profane.”
CHRISTOPHE HUSS, LE DEVOIR – MARCH 9 2019

“Valérie Milot is living proof that being a classical musician and having a rebellious spirit are entirely compatible. Throughout her performance in Orbis, the renowned harpist wields her instrument in ways you have probably never seen or heard.”
ISABEL AUTHIER, LA VOIX DE L’EST – OCTOBER 20 2018

“I must commend the musician for the accuracy and passion of her performance as well as her stamina in playing for a full hour without a break and without missing a single cue. Equally noteworthy are her originality and boldness in imparting this novel approach to a classical concert.”
STEVE BERGERON, LA TRIBUNE – JULY 7 2017

“Without a doubt, this work enabled harpist Valérie Milot to showcase her exceptional talent. This young virtuoso’s performance was replete with nuance and so dynamically rich that she appeared to transcend the technical limitations of her instrument.”
EDWARD SAVA-SEGAL, BACHTRACK – MAY 17 2017

“In this most supple of accompaniments, we sense that conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin listens to his soloist and vice versa, and that the musicians are attuned to every signal from their maestro. Valérie Milot, for her part, once again demonstrated her great musicianship in this neo-classical concert.”
JEANNE HOUREZ, SORS-TU? – MAY 15 2017
