5.0 out of 5 stars

Lorraine Hunt Lieberson soars with power, control, and elegance. A voice of beauty and warmth, she is truly... an angel.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Overrated recording, overrated oratorio
Let me begin by saying that I'm not a fan of Theodora. I think Handel was at his best with the Messiah, Solomon, Semele, Serse... Here the music is oversimplified and somewhat lifeless. Unfortuantely, this recording makes things worse with its small and dramatically weak chorus. I love Handel's music, but this CD was a disappointment. It's like the Magic Flute, if you let...

Unfortuantely, this recording makes things worse with its small and dramatically weak chorus. I love Handel's music, but this CD was a disappointment. It's like the Magic Flute, if you let it drag it gets boring, if you put your heart and soul into it, then it comes alive. What I did like about this recording was Hunt's angelic voice.
