Hey, can this lady sing!!!
Pumped through expensive speakers on my old steam driven amplifier and CD player, her voice rocked the room. It was like being visited by half a dozen different women. Cleopatra popped in a couple of times to tell me her woes. Alminera sang of her despair (far, far better than most I have heard). Medea appeared to tell me of her love and her jealousy. I thought that Armida's anger was going to bring the walls down - boy that girl is ANGRY. Semele, falling under Zeus' spell captivated me and was captivated. One, of course, shouldn't be sexist but to be treated to the sight of such a beautiful woman appearing as all these beautiful women would, indeed, be a pleasure. I, unfortunately, can't afford Glyndebourne ... Read More:

Petrou has a good feel for Handelian style. His tendency towards fast tempi in the bravura arias and his rather abrupt approach to the accompanied recitatives reminded me a little of Nicholas McGegan's style, but I found Petrou's manner to be more sympathetic, without the abrupt phrase-endings that characterise McGegan's performances.

The orchestra (a period instrument band) is stylish and responsive.

In addition, Petrou paces the recitatives well and the singers inject real drama into ... Read More:
