Background: 'John Eliot Gardiner catches all its brilliance and directs an exhilarating performance, marked by strongly accented, sharply incisive singing from the choir and outstanding solo contributions.' Penguin Guide *** on Dixit Dominus.

'Koopman re-creates something of the occasion in his colourful interpretation of Handel's orchestration and in his pacing of the work. The expressive and dulcet oboe tone produced by Ku Ebbinge and Michel Henry shines out again and again throughout - In the recitative Notte funesta', Koopman creates a wonderful ensemble timbre with recorders, bass viol and organ, and the delicately poised organ pedal that begins Ferma l'ali creates a magical atmosphere that lasts to the end of the aria…' Gramophone on La Resurrezione.
