”Mezzo-soprano Eleonora Filipponi was wonderful in the role of the nurse Lindora. She possesses a very distinctive voice with an exceptionally wide range of colours which she used to good effect in producing a well-defined presentation, full of energy and detail…”

"Musicalissima e dotata di un timbro seducente appare quindi Eleonora Filipponi che sa dare il giusto risalto al breve ruolo di Wowkle”

-
“[…] eine Maddalena (Eleonora Filipponi), die als überaus glaubwürdige Verführerin auftritt und deren wunderbar patinierter Mezzo im zu Recht so hoch gerühmten Quartett mit Rigoletto, dem Herzog und Gilda wunderbar zur Geltung kommt“
Dr. C. E. Ritterband, Klassik begeistert – Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, Rigoletto
