Reviews & Press
Bayerische Staatsoper - Braunfels - Die Vögel - Nightingale
Das ist besonders mit Caroline Wettergreen als Nachtigall im tollen Federkleid eine betörende Mischung, denn Wettergreen singt so herzerweichend, dass sich der Besuch schon allein für den von ihr gesungenen Prolog lohnt.

Glyndebourne on Tour - Massenet - Cendrillon - La Fee
The Fairy is brilliantly sung by Caroline Wettergreen, an excellent coloratura soprano of whom much more will be heard.
Daily Mail
Though the best performances come from Zwierko and Wettergreen. Wettergreen floats the Fairy’s coloratura with exquisite ease.
The Guardian
Caroline Wettergreen is near perfection as the Fairy, casting a spell over the audience with her top notes light as thistledown.
