“..its Carmen, Catrin Johnsson from Sweden, handled southern sultriness with flair…” Carmen / Opera Project / Opera Now

"Catrin Johnsson is an incomparable Cherubino, dangerous, purposive, her natural unforced singing rooted in character."
Cherubino: Le Nozze di Figaro / English Touring Opera/ The Stage

"The show was all but stolen by Catrin Johnsson's delicious Cherubino, her unsettling androgyny enhanced by the beginnings of a moustache. And she sang beautifully as well." Cherubino: Le Nozze di Figaro / ETO/ Opera

"...the wonderfully sympathetic Prince (Catrin Johnsson)...Johnsson's exquisite delivery - pure joy..." The Happy Prince / Jubilee Opera / Opera Now

"A Cherubino of a servant boy, Dimitri, irresistibly played by Catrin Johnsson, dapples every scene, finally gathering his Edelweiss in a little dance routine of his own in the Swiss spring which is to bring tragedy."
Dimitri: Fedora / Opera Holland Park / The Times
