2001
on this disc Cecilia Bartoli makes clear that Gluck was a formidable musical dramatist even in his early, pre-'reform' works...This CD, in short, is a tour de force of dramatic singing, in the widest sense of the term: and it is also full of really beautiful sound; rich, warm, out.
July 2014
Bartoli is in all her considerable glory on this 2001 collection with the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin - the arias from La Clemenza di Tito in particular contain some hair-raising feats of vocal athleticism (bare-knuckle coloratura, top Ds and all!) but the simplicity of 'Se mai senti spirarti sul volto' (such a beautiful melody that Gluck recycled it several times!) is equally breath-taking.
