…Caroline MacPhie whose acting must be applauded as well as her far too brief vocal performance.

Special mention must go to MacPhie’s performance as Pamina. Her solos were breathtaking and she manages to convey the many emotions required for this part.

Whats On Stage (The Magic Flute, Bristol Tobacco Factory, 2013)

What impresses about the evening is not just how well the performers accomplish their difficult tasks but how integrated the whole show is.

George Hall
The Stage (SUM, Royal Opera House, 2012)

Caroline MacPhie, the only Brit, put over her material with far more dramatic verve than anyone else; her Cunning Little Vixen extract, sung in Czech, was especially gripping.

Richard Morrison
The Times (Final, Kathleen Ferrier Awards, 2009)

…as Susanna, Caroline MacPhie reveals a clear soprano and excellent enunciation in a performance that proves to be just as sharp as the character.
