ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: arias & scenes for tenor - BBC Music Magazine 2008 Award Winner 'BBC Music Magazine 2008 Awards Nomination - the Jury says : Handel was one of the first Baroque composers to invest his talents heavily in the tenor voice, and here this unique English legacy is powerfully recalled.
