“…The singing is accomplished and responsive to the text … We know little about the instrumental forces for Venetian opera of the day, but the Orchestra Barocca Modo Antiquo and their excellent conductor Federico Maria Sardelli made choices that sound attractive and plausible. Doron Sherwin’s cornett playing is a frequent delight in the sonic mix. These musicians are specialists in this repertoire, and it shows… The live performance is well recorded, with fairly little audience intrusion…”

“… Ekaterina Protsenko sings a very attractive Amastre, and Caterina Lippo is also convincing as Romilda. The other roles are satisfactorily cast. Frederico Maria Sardelli leads the excellent Orchestra Barocca Modo Antiquo in a spirited, flowing and energetic performance.” ****
