Notes & Reviews:

This 16-CD boxed set contains six complete Handel operas composed over a period of more than 30 years, and arrives just in time to celebrate the composer's 150th anniversary year. All six operas are conducted by Alan Curtis, the American-born specialist in the Baroque and Classical eras, and the collection offers a roll-call of star baroque singers, among them Joyce DiDonato, Patrizia Ciofi, Vivica Genaux, Max Emanuel Cencic, Rene Jacobs, and more!
