Sosarme: wonderful Handel, November 9, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Handel - Sosarme / Aler · Baird · Minter · Lane · Fortunato · Somary (Audio CD)
This two-CD set has apparently been released for some time, but is new to me. It affords the superb American soprano Julianne Baird yet another wonderful opportunity to shine as this country's pre-eminent Handel soprano, and the bonus of internationally recorded tenor John Aler as her partner is a real coup. This coupled with the knowing leadership of Handel veteran conductor Johannes Somary, who was unearthing works by this great baroque master long before the Hogwoods and McGegans got in on the act, makes for a terrific listening experience. And, oh yes, there's a dynamite Italian Handelian score as well!
