"Han har en lethed i sin ubesværede, svævende klang, den amerikanske kontratenor Bejun Mehta ... Her oplever man både det fremragende tyske periodeorkester Akademie für alte Musik, der har barokmusik som sin specialitet, og den amerikanske mande-alts sjældent ubesværede måde at bruge stemmens højde på. Intet lyder klemt eller forceret. De mange koloraturranker klinger attraktivt ... Her er kristent og verdsligt, italiensk og tysk sat op side om side. Men de forskellige indslag er samlet med omtanke, musikerne spiller med overskud ... og for Bejun Mehta giver det alt sammen lejlighed til at vise, hvor meget han mestrer af nuancer og smidige vokaludfoldelser"

"Bejun Mehta nähert sich der unterschiedlichen Gestik dieser Kantaten mit enormem Gespür, durchmisst dabei eine enorme Gefühlsskala"
Presto classical, 2018-03-28
"Editor's choices - March 2018: Mehta is in his considerable vocal prime on this beautifully-sung collection of Italian and German cantatas (plus three of Handel's sacred arias in English); CPE Bach's dissonant lament 'Ach, dass ich Wassers gnug hätte' showcases the formidable 'blade' and colour in his middle voice, the coloratura of Vivaldi's Pianti, sospiri ... is scintillating, and Handel's 'I will magnify thee' is sung with a poise and simplicity that border on the sublime. Some of the finest singing I've heard on disc this year"

BBC music magazine, 2018 September
"Bejun Mehta's CD focuses on the 18th-century cantata, with some excursions ... Something of a mixed bag, then, but all quality items, with the pieces by the two members of the Bach family outstanding. As he demonstrates in Mi palpita il cor, Mehta's voice remains light and graceful ... Mehta's consciousness of text and sense of drama make vivid the Vivaldi work, while he is deeply moving in Johann Christoph Bach's fine lament and noble in the Handel anthem aria (I will magnify thee) as well as the title track"
The gramophone, 2018 July
"Mehta has one of the best voices in the business. Full, free and with real power behind it, it sits unapologetically at the operatic end of the countertenor spectrum, with a lovely natural spin to it. He's also an unusually thoughtful programmer, as his latest recital bears out. 'Cantata' traces the development of the solo cantata as it moves from Italy to Germany and England and from secular to sacred themes. The genre ... offers plenty of surprises and unexpected points of musical dialogue"
