This review is from: Monteverdi: L'incoronazione di Poppea (Audio CD)

The orchestration with the recorders and strings absolutely sparkles. Rene Jacobs did a wonderful job with this work. The singing is beautiful, especially Jennifer Larmore. I thought the secondary roles were well performed. Having listened to several Poppea's, this would be my first choice if purchasing this opera.
