THE DUCHESS OF CHICAGO, Theatre J. K. Tyla, Plzeň
"For his purpose ... the director of this staging Roman Meluzín found the perfect performers for the main roles. In the premiere cast excelled the whole key quartet - opera singers Aleš Briscein and Radka Sehnoutková performed not only great singing, but, in the context of czech circumstances, their motional expression of the roles was really exceptional."
Plzeň newspaper, 6.3.2009, Vítězslav Sladký
"Roman Meluzín decided to assign the roles to the best artists of the musical and operetta field and complete the ensemble with great opera singers. This bet was totally right. Radka Sehnoutková as the Miss Mary Loyd plays convincingly a shallow, young lady, not really interested in life, and her singing numbers are a marvellous experience."

COSI FAN TUTTE
"The concert confirmed the reputation of the PKF as the best czech ?Mozart? orchestra, but not at last the performance of the singers helped to the success. Especially the four young singers (Marie Fajtová, Jana Štefáčková, Radka Sehnoutková, Tomáš Kořínek) showed to be great hopes of our opera."

WIENER BLUT, Theatre J. K. Tyla, Plzeň
"The best asset of the performance is the brilliant youthful comic pair - new dramatically artful and new opera soloist Tomas Korinek, who has introduced himsel in a very good form as footman Josef and lively Radka Sehnoutkova (Pepi). This very well blessed, equally for her singing, but also for her stage presence and acting, the soloist of the Brno theatre, has a good chance to become a very special character of the somehow stagnant czech music scene..."
Vítězslav Sladký, Westbohemian newspaper, (January 2006)
"As to casting the prestigious operette performance, it proved to be properly done by assigning the role of the dancer Cagliari to graceful Magda Vítková, and the role of the model Pepi to vigorous and sparkly Radka Sehnoutková. Both are perfect singers, with unstudied natural charming motions, and seductive. Among the men only Tomáš Kořínek in the youthful comic role of the footman Josef could keep up with the girls. It was his duet with Sehnoutková which reminded of the old good operetta times. "

THE CUNNING LITTLE VIXEN
- comments from the leaders of the animated project "Cunning Little Vixen", in which Radka sung the title-role:
"Animated movie doesn?t mean, we work with second-class orchestra or singers. We wanted the best quality, that?s why Kent Nagano and Berlin Symphony Orchestra were assigned to make the recording. We have listened to hundreds of singers to be sure, we have the best ones."
Laurent Pillot, music director and conductor, in the documentary about making of the movie
"So we openly auditioned, we didn't know any of the singers in the Czech Republic or in Slovakia and we were delighted with the cast..."
