Background: The great Dame Janet Baker's famous interpretation of the role of Julius Caesar has long been regarded as a classic. This disc features scenes from Chandos's three-disc recording of English National Opera's celebrated 1979 production. Julius Caesar is one of Handel's finest operas.

'Everything seems to revolve around Janet Baker's glorious singing. The repeats in her da capo arias are amazing - exquisitely ornamented revisitations which speak of deepened insights and emotions, which is surely exactly what Handel intended. Her genius infects all of her colleagues while, of course, Charles Mackerras's direction contributes much to this fine and enduringly fresh theatrical experience.' BBC Music Magazine
