    What strikes me is Cai's facial expression when he is singing this beautiful piece of music.His face stays totallty relaxed! Not a single sign of facial muscular distortion! His singing sounds completely natural. This is rare indeed: a young boy who has developed a perfect singing technique. Cai, you are a super talent indeed :-) No matter how much your permanent singing voice will sound later in life : your singing technique will never leave you . Lucky boy :-) xx

    Heard this piece many times, but never from such a heavenly voice!

    absolutely exceptional - not just the purity of tone, but his clear ability to "feel" and understand the song, "from the inside" which some boy sopranos lack.

    One of Handel’s best works. This young lad sings it with such ease. Just magical. 😀

    ... so amazingly good. In these difficult times so uplifting...

    What a contrast between Cai's crystal treble and now rich baritone! We are so fortunate -- both that he recorded "Seren" as a boy for us to treasure his young voice (I listen to it regularly), and, that his developing voice as a young man can still move the heart. Thank you, Cai!

    Cai's voice conveys an obvious skill learnt, accomplishing depth to the treble drawn with ease in his voice where this score demands in an eloquent instrumental accompaniment.

    A joy! Some tiny roughnesses which training will eliminate, but as close to heaven as we will hear, and completely natural. A young man to follow.
