„Special mention for Ukrainian soprano Kateryna Kasper, whose Ännchen is more feisty cougar than perky soubrette: Jacobs explains that he sees her as the older of the two women, contrary to received opinion.“

  • Roland Dippel

„Jacobs achieves, with the fantastically performing orchestra, a feat that can easily rank among the important recordings of Der Freischütz by Carlos Kleiber, Nikolaus Harnoncourt, and Bruno Weil.“
