Soprano Verónica Cangemi shines in a variety of moods as Handel heroines, with the added attraction of Celine Pasche's virtuoso recorder playing, accompanied by Andrea Marcon.

Cecilia Bartoli sang arias written (and not written) for Farinelli like a goddess, putting on and taking off a parade of varigendered costumes to the jubilant virtuosity of Les Musiciens du Prince.

Two sparkling performances by the Oslo Philharmonic and Harry Bicket of dance suites from Rameau's Platée and Les Boréades framed at times brilliant singing from countertenor David Hansen.
