Nuria Rial and Lothar Odinius are the stars of the show. Rial has a fine voice, and excellent diction, and her text expression is mostly very good. The arias 'Pious orgies' and 'O liberty, thou choicest treasure' are two examples. She also performs the recitatives in a truly declamatory style. A particularly telling example of her treatment of the text is the delightful aria 'So shall the lute and harp awake' (act 3). Lothar Odinius shows the same qualities, and I was especially impressed with his differentiated performance of the coloratura passages in his arias. Like Nuria Rial he performs the recitatives very well. The aria 'Call forth thy pow'rs' (act 1) and the aria with chorus 'Sound an alarm' (act 2) are particularly well done.
The choir is good, but the higher voices use too much vibrato. That is particularly notable in the chorus 'See, the conqu'ring hero comes', where they sing without the male voices. But in the tutti parts of this chorus it produces enough power to make real impression. Most choruses are well realised. The members of the orchestra are not mentioned in the booklet, so I don't know how large it is. But it is my impression that it is too small, and that is a problem this recording shares with many others of vocal works by Handel. What makes it even worse is that the volume of the recording has been too low. The orchestra doesn't have enough presence.— Johan van Veen
