Attracting great reviews in Semele at Glyndebourne, Stephanie Wake-Edwards (Ino) “is clearly a singer of exceptional skill and sensitivity ….. her control of line and beauty of tone were remarkable.” (Roger Parker, Opera Magazine). Tim Ashley in The Guardian said, “Both mezzos are outstanding, with Johnston’s formidable hauteur superbly contrasted with Wake-Edwards’s passionate intensity.” And Boyd Tonkin at The Arts Desk refers to “…the golden mezzo of Stephanie Wake-Edwards…in a beautifully voiced and phrased ‘Turn, hopeless lover’. Her warmth and refinement impressed from first to last.”
