Reviews
"lt's impossible not to get caught up in the
exhilarating flow of music. A must for all Handel lovers."
Fanfare, USA
"Deborah contains some of the most glorious
music Handel ever wrote. Even if many of the numbers have
been recycled from earlier works, the invention is still
staggering. Handel devotees can amuse themselves spotting
the tunes while everyone else can revel in the sumptuous
scoring and the sheer vitality and humanity of the piece,
all superbly conveyed in Robert King's recording."
BBC Music Magazine Top 1000 CDs Guide
"Superb... The recording is another of these
inspired ventures by Hyperion into music we ought to know
better."
