Notes & Reviews:

"Majella Cullagh's bright tone and sincere, forward delivery are just right for the put-upon-but-strong Sela, and she handles the coloratura passages as well as she does Donizetti's long, gentler lines. As the wicked Ada, mezzo Manuela Custer sings with clarity and energy, with pointed diction and fine, subtle inflections to poison Cadmo's mind... There is no faulting Giuliano Carella's leadership, and as usual the Geoffrey Mitchell Choir and LPO sing and play with passion and great accuracy. This recording makes the best possible case for this odd work, and is highly recommended." -Classics Today (9/9)
