Zum Finale Joyce DiDonatos Curating-Artist-Festivals im Konzerthaus be(s)tätigten sich Corti und Ensemble einmal mehr als beeindruckende Benchmark in Sachen Barock.

Handel's last English oratorio Jephtha is beautifully performed by Christophe Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques in Halle, although the drama is a bit slow off the mark. 

Handel's last oratorio is stylishly set in the composer’s era, with an all-star cast of Handelian singers who give their all.

Poor diction and lack of heft from some principals mar the composer's last great oratorio. 

Claus Guth's production of Handel's last oratorio lands in Paris, where William Christie leads Les Arts Florissants and a stellar cast. 

Jephtha at the Halle Handel Festival subverts the text, and provides little in the way of dramatic or musical compensation.

While the oratorio “Jephtha” is rarely performed, Joachim Krause recently conducted the Capriccio Barockorchester and some 120 singers of the Gemischte Chor Zürich to delight a Zurich audience.

Concerto Köln, honed to perfection, and an accomplished cast star in Claus Guth's tense, dark staging of Handel's Jephtha. 

Some nice singing and Baroque playing don't quite make up for an over-ambitious, drab staging of a Handel oratorio in Australia's capital.

Steiner’s reading of the mildly disturbing but generally obsequiously presented story is decidedly edgy, especially considering the opera is staged inside the city church.

Handel’s Jephtha is an oratorio, rather than an opera. However, the story is one of high drama and emotion, and thus the work lends itself easily to operatic adaptation.
