BBC Music Magazine

October 2007

***

“Emanuela Galli (Euridice/La Musica) is splendid in voice and emotion and Mirko Guadagnini (Orfeo) is arresting in the low-lying lamenting sections of Act V but rather dry in the upper range.”

Gramophone Magazine

November 2007

“Cavina's wonderful account goes straight to the top of the list of recommended recordings. Do not miss it.”

Sunday Times

“As in their previous Monteverdi editions, La Venexiana bring a dramatic delivery of the words and a uniquely Italian blend of solo voices to this glorious music, unrivalled on disc.”
