Praise for Ms. Baldwin as the Soprano Soloist in Carmina Burana with the Rockford Symphony Orchestra, 2010:
"A searing moment came when solo soprano Greta Baldwin reached a high register that soared with such natural grace that its scintillating energy drew an audible gasp from concertgoers."
— Tim Hughes, Rockford Register Star
Praise for Ms. Baldwin as Miss Jessel in The Turn of the Screw at the Castleton Festival, 2009:
"The tiny theater is a mixed blessing for singers; it allows them maximum impact, but also leaves them cruelly exposed. The best members of Friday's cast turned this to an advantage, particularly the two singers who played the ghosts, Steven Ebel (Peter Quint) and Greta Baldwin (Miss Jessel), pale-faced and otherworldly and strong-lunged. Baldwin...offered some of the biggest and most climactic sounds of the night."
— Anne Midgette, The Washington Post
"The most gratifying singing came from soprano Greta Baldwin, as Miss Jessel. Baldwin has a large voice... it is a real instrument, professionally and confidently used and in service of a sound dramatic conception of the role."
— Philip Kennicott, IonArts
—Charles T. Downey, IonArts
—Tim Smith, The Baltimore Sun
Praise for Ms. Baldwin’s recital at the Chicago Cultural Center, 2008:
—Brian Dickie, Chicago Opera Theater General Director
Praise for Adele in Die Fledermaus with American Opera Group:
— Cathryn Wilkinson, The Wednesday Journal
"[Flora] was matched well by the ghoulish Miss Jessel of Greta Baldwin, who with her sharp and present voice was much more insidious in this production than Quint, rising up like a viperous specter from a patch of reeds (the only time the hair on my arms stood on end) and again, her hair dripping, from the lake-pit in Act II."
"Greta Baldwin sang sturdily and affectingly as Miss Jessel."
“[T]oday a member of this year's COT company gave a very well chosen program in her recital at the Chicago Cultural Center's Preston Bradley Hall. This was the exceptionally musical and serious Greta Baldwin. Her program of Schubert, Bizet, Thomas Moore (Arranged by B Britten) and Rossini was perfectly balanced and as well as giving much pleasure enabled her to display a breadth of musical sympathies and a wide range of emotional response.”
“Sung by... Greta Baldwin, this role requires a crystal-clear voice in the stratosphere, a snappy delivery of one-liners, and a believable heap of melodramatic baggage, all of which Ms. Baldwin delivered with suave naturalness. Her rendition of the famous "Laughing Song"...is rife with sarcasm and rings valiantly throughout the theatre. Ms. Baldwin's Adele not only has the endurance to sing a demanding score with energy and mastery up to the very last high note, but her pacing on stage is exceptional, both elegant and tongue-in-cheek.”
