Description: Amazon review: "This 1979 recording, one of the first complete recordings of a Handel opera on 'original instruments,' holds up very well - in fact it's a delight. The backbone of the performance is the excellent playing of La Petite Bande under Sigiswald Kuijken's direction. He shapes each number impeccably, and it's good to hear a sizeable ensemble - basically 25 strong, including 4 each of oboes and bassoons - play the score. The cast may tend towards lighter voices than the recent (2005) Chandos recording of the piece, but this works well for a piece that is more intimate than heroic, and they are without exception shrewdly matched to their roles." *Note: Outer cardboard box holding the CD case has slight wear/scuffing on corners.
