Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique, Monteverdi Choir, Sir John Eliot Gardiner

Studio recording, 2002

“A fine set that overcomes the many problems posed by this magical opera...Best is Jonas Kaufman's Huon. The tenor is supposed to possess the heft of a Tannhäuser while performing graceful flourishes in the manner of Rossini's Count Almaviva. Kaufman brings all the lyrical sweetness and technical skill for that part of it, and can still produce extra power and ring for the heroics.” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2005

“Stylish and refined…the set can be recommended without reservation” – The Penguin Guide

“At bargain price, this first recording of Weber's English opera, albeit in German, still offers strong competition for Gardiner's new recording. Nilsson and a young Domingo thrill in the leading roles.” BBC Music Magazine, July 2006 *****
