5* performance , 0* notes

R. Rockwell | Brooklyn, NY USA | 07/01/2004

(3 out of 5 stars)

"This opera is as beautiful as calisto. It last for four hours in this performance. It is almost impossibe to follow the plot because there is no libretto included. There is a synopsis of each act but I found it would have been better if each scene was outlined in the very least. There is no libretto on the net. I really would not recomment this recording despite the excellent performance from the cast."
