"The Three Ladies — Raquel González, Summer Hassan and Corrie Stallings — were an unmitigated delight, a zaftig trio with rich voices that blended beautifully, along with attitude to spare."

​

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH

 The music and singing thrilled me and I found myself – even at that young age – wanting to be on that stage, singing, and knowing every single thing that was going on. I wanted to be part of it.

​

THE WASHINGTON POST

"...while the sweet-voiced Summer Hassan 

effectively vocalized the two most alluring sirens on the screen, Dianara, Hercules’ love interest, and the exacting Queen of the Hesperides"

​

OPERA NEWS

"Mozart’s love-affirmation aria ‘L'amerò, sarò costante’ from his early opera seria, Il Re Pastore/The Shepherd King, contains some beguiling poetry by Metastasio and equally beguiling violin solo and obbligato played here beautifully by Roberto Cani.  In a welcome departure from the usual wan, precious renditions of this aria, soprano Summer Hassan's ample lyric voice soared powerfully and regally in an ardent declaration of love and devotion.  Chausson’s Chanson perpétuelle, in a piano and string quartet arrangement, benefited from the delicate shades and colors from the musicians, as well as Ms. Hassan’s superb feeling for the French text, mirroring in her expressive singing the music's ever-shifting moods of heartache and melancholia."
