Awards and reviews
This is a very impressively sung DVD set of Ariodante, led by Ann Hallenberg in the castrato title-role, who manages her complex divisions with aplomb. Laura Cherici, Ariodante's beloved Ginevra, also has a lovely voice when singing expressively
Ann Hallenberg is one of the glories of the Baroque scene. She sang the greatest of this oratorio´s extravagant string of hit-tunes with melting tenderness.
