"Caterina Sala impressed both audiences and critics with a superb Elvira, outstanding in every respect."

Scherzo, October 2023

"Caterina Sala, on the other hand, is extremely refined as Nannetta, a soprano with a supple voice capable of melting the audience's hearts with her ethereal effusions: "Sul fil d'un soffio etesio," it goes without saying, is the most musically touching moment of the entire evening."

L'Ape Musicale, March 2025

"Sala has rare depth in her voice, and a wonderful, controlled vibrato throughout the range, never wandering from the note and which ascends smoothly from a rich lower tessitura to a brilliant top. She is pretty and seems to have a personality to conquer many a heart."

British Theatre Guide, November 2022
