 | | Fink traverses Frauenliebe with a wide tonal palette, equally persuasive in the wonder of first love and the bleakness of loss...Finks sings the eight songs in an intimate, confiding manner, and with a directness that is rare and treasurable. |
 | | "For all that Schumann's song cycle Frauenliebe und Leben was written at a time when a woman's place was under a man's thumb, he never held back from letting his sopranos vent their spleen. |
 | | Fink's subtle gradations of tone, her expressive but never overdone nuances, make hers an especially moving interpretation in which Roger Vignoles's playing of the piano part makes him an equal partner...the seven Lenau settings, too, are sung with a consummate control, which in no way inhibits their fervour. |
