5.0 out of 5 stars
Good orchestral & dramatic interpretation; good value.,
By Marcolorenzo (Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Handel: Rinaldo (Audio CD)
Overall good, highly refined and knowledgeable period instrument performance. The orchestral playing is at the same level of theatricality and dramatic intensity as the Jacobs' Harmonia Mundi version. This is understandable since the conductor Kevin Mallon worked and studied with René Jacobs in the past. Unfortunately however the soloists especially the sopranos are not at the level of the Hogwood or Jacobs' versions, although they give their best efforts dramatically. Good value however. This might be a good place to start to get to know this fantastic opera and then if you are interested to invest in the Hogwood version (Decca)(which is the best version musically) or the Jacobs' version (Harmonia Mundi) (best dramatically). Full libretto available on [...] for download. Handel - Rinaldo / Bartoli, Daniels, AAM, HogwoodHandel - Rinaldo
