Handel's Alcina is an opera full of opportunities for "golden age" singing. Erato's assemblage, presided over by William Christie and Les Arts Florissants, brings together Renée Fleming, Susan Graham, and Natalie Dessay in a glorious demonstration of Handelian singing way beyond the merely respectable achievements of the Baroque "specialists." -- George Jellinek, FANFARE [Want Lists, 2000]
Les Arts Florissants play with their customary elegance... The recitatives are skilfully placed throughout... This is the most intelligent and discriminating account of the opera so far, if not necessarily the liveliest. -- International Record Review [3/2000]
