A strong performance, with attack and intensity." Walter Gürtelschmied - Die Presse
"Mezzo Anna Alàs i Jové makes Romeo whirl across the stage, outstanding acting from an action ready fighter to a devoted lover.

Petra und Helmut Huber - Online Merker
"Anna Alàs i Jové's quality as a singer was once again confirmed by a textbook Romeo in the "I Capuleti e i Montecchi" new production at the Landestheater Linz. From the opening cavatina ("Se Romeo t'uccise un figlio"), Alàs displays a persuasive lyrical atmosfear that contrasts with the corresponding energetic cabaletta ("La tremenda ultrice spada"). The singer comfortably arrives at shimmering high notes and delivers powerful basses, rich in harmonics. Her skills as a singer-actress must also be added, with a restrained melancholy in the second act and a masterly change of pathos from "Ella è morta, o sciagurato" onwards. The great singer that is Alàs emerges, showing her knowledge in romantic belcanto, in the sinuous phrases of "Deh!, tu bell'anima", with calculated pathetic accents in the cantabile line. Brava!"

"This performance scores first and foremost with the protagonists Anna Alàs i Jové (as Romeo) and Ilona Revolskaya (as Giulietta) - the two young and completely fresh power women don't need to hide behind such "old" competitors as Baltsa/Gruberová, Kasarova/Mei, Garanča/Netrebko.

"The audience's favorite in the first part was Anna Alàs i Jové (Cherubino) who performed with an elegance and vocal roundness that would make any Conte jealous. Furthermore, her role was enriched with the most effective gestures and expressions." Harald Sauerland - Westfälische Nachrichten
"But the one who stole the show was the mezzo Anna Alàs i Jové, a tremendous stage animal. From Plaerdemavida joyful mischief to the hidden evil of the false timorous, the singer moved from one to another with lightning speed just by rolling up the sleeves of a grey dress, concentrating in silence and emerging with another face, another voice." Roberto Herrscher - Periodista Narrativo
"Anna Alàs i Jové's two contradictory and tremendously symbolic roles, the most applauded, are a theatrical challenge that the singer faces with an admirable display and interpretative maturity.

"Peralada welcomes the absolute premiere of Joan Magrané's work with an immense and split Anna Alàs. i Jové. The roles of Plaerdemavida and Viuda Reposada are two opposites. One luminous and the other dark. They are ying and yang. Magrané has written them for the same singer. The mezzo-soprano Anna Alàs Jové, who has previously worked with the composer, interpreted them brilliantly, demonstrating her great intelligence. She did so with a commendable vocal and theatrical ability to change in a matter of seconds from one role to another, from the mischief of a sensual Plaerdemavida to a deceptive and envious Vidua Reposada."

"Anna Alàs i Jové brought great cycles from her Catalan home, and just the sound of her voice is pure poetry. It seems that Alexander Fleischer senses, sees, feels each note that he plays. We owe him the goose bumps after a dramatic and impassioned cavalcade through the night or an ecstatic 'Amor' that left us listeners melting." Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung
"Anna Alàs i Jové thrilled the audience in the second soirée at the Liedfestes Hirschberg. One can fully devote himself to her voice, which with an astonishing range sounds clear and sure at the highest pitch
and masters all emotional colors, sometimes strict and sharp or dramatic, sometimes creamy and seductive. She stands on the stage with a relaxed smile, accompanied closely with intuition by Alexander Fleischer." Weinheimer Nachrichten
"The singer provides Toldrà's Iberian colour and ardor with great authenticity and around it develops a lot of sensuality with her flexible voice, rich in colours. In Mompou the duo created an unreal mood with the intimate and delicate streams of colours gorgeously shaded by the singer and with suspended pianistic sounds, dreamlike. Like a ruby, the mezzo allowed her voice to shine and sparkle, wonderfully capturing Blancafort's melancholic atmospheres. The mezzo-soprano shimmered Montsalvatge with glowing ornaments, seductive nuances. On the piano Alexander Fleischer accompanied wide awake and with seismographic fineness, with the best sense fomented the feelings and passions that were sang."

"Secure and with a great command of the scene, soon showed the technical foundation that she holds in the Vivaldi cantata "Cessate, omai cessate". Her clean and flexible vocal line, reinforced by a careful phrasing, soon came to the light. (...) Supported by a luminous expressiveness she transmitted in this piece, alternating recitatives and arias, the climate of pastoral loves and hates, topped with a hectic and ornamental aria away from the previous laments. Händel's "Un'alma innamorata" allowed her to show a remarkable comic facet, especially in the second aria. "I enjoy, laugh and hope / and love more than one heart," the text says. Wonderful also the first aria in dialogue with the concertino, but where she could display her virtuosity was in Zelenka's "I Phoebe, umbras pelle". in this excerpt from a work by the Czech author she showed the beauty and coordination of her vocal agilities so she was so acclaimed that she had to offer an encore with the same aria. The singer, who we will soon see at Liceu with "La forza del destino", proved to be much more than an emerging value. She stole the show in a concert where Musica Florea took an excellent counterpoint. " El Periódico de Catalunya
