"Nydia Caro ha logrado una verdadera obra de arte,una alhaja digna de ser exhibida. Este es el album que culmina una carrera llena de exitos. La interpretacion y la inspiracion que esta cantante logra es casi mistica. La musicalizacion de Joakin Bello merece un reglon aparte. La musica logra transportarnos a otro lugar, a otra dimension, la voz de Nydia es otro instrumento, el mas dulce, el unico con latidos de corazon. El compacto termina con una plegaria cantada de Santa Teresa "Nada te turbe" y es el final perfecto.Santa Teresa,San Juan y fray Luis deben estar satisfechos, sus escritos encontraron la musica y la voz que merecen.He regalado este compacto a varias amistades.La reaccion de ellos me convence que es el regalo perfecto.Felicidades a Nydia, a Joakin Bello, y a todos los que formaron parte en este evento musical que nos lleva al nuevo milenio con esperanza y musica del alma."
De Amores Luminosos

"Nydia Caro latest recording is a natural for a singer and producer of her high caliber. De Amores Luminosos is the best compilation of music that I have heard in any language (Spanish, English or German). Ms. Caro deserves greater recognition than the one she currently receives from her audience, because indeed SHE IS A REAL SINGER, COMPOSER, PRODUCER AND POET! A mix hard to find in these days."
"Este trabalho e calcado em uma sensibilidade extraordinaria. E uma musica para elevar o espirito ao encontro com o Absoluto."
Spanish Mysticism by a wonderful voice from Puerto Rico
Alvin | New Jersey, USA | 12/30/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)
"This is Nydia Caro's best product to date. Joakim Bello's musical arrangements are excellent. Ms. Caro's melodious soft voice, as well as her excellent articulation is a real jewel for the listener. As a Puerto Rican, a Quaker and a Franciscan oblate, I truly believe that this is one of the most wonderful musical jewels of the twentieth century, especially for lovers of mystic poetry like me. Gracias, Nydia, por el regalo que Dios ha puesto en tu voz y que tú compartes con nosotros."
A Flight with Mystic Poetry into Music
Kevin Teegarden | Hillsdale, MI United States | 02/21/2003

"Nydia Caro's performance is outstanding. She has grasped the meaning of the poetry of the Spanish mystics quite well as she selected the poems and the music. Her voice is pristine. I highly recommend this CD to anyone who is searching for higher meanings in life, and to those who love Spanish poetry. Do not forget that this poetry can also be found in English translations. San Juan, Santa Teresa and Fray Luis are the most important representatives of the Spanish Mystic Poetry. I have always enjoyed Nydia's records, and I am pleased that she continues producing great music."
