5.0 out of 5 stars A quality performance, May 8, 1999
This review is from: Graun - Cleopatra & Cesare / J. Williams · Vermillion · Dawson · J. Francis · R. Gambill · Popken · Concerto Köln · Jacobs (Audio CD)
I bought this out of curiosity. Well, it won't exactly compare to Handel, but it is a quality opera, and it is very well presented here. I can't say that this is one of my favorite CD's, but it deserves a high rating. My usual idiosyncratic objection (which is NOT a reflection on the artistic merit!) is this: male roles should be sung by males. The world is teeming with countertenors ready to stand in the shoes of the unfortunate castrati for whom these operas were written.
