'An unfailingly delightful work, beautifully performed and recorded' (Gramophone)

'Une des plus délicieuses partitions du XVIII Siècle' (L'Avant Scene Opera, France)

'A first-class Handel release' (American Record Guide)

'McFadden is a loving Galatea, Ainsley a charming Acis, and Covey-Crump a finely polished Damon. Michael George is magnificent - a nimble but ferocious Polyphemus whose every note is absolutely centred' (BBC Music Magazine Top 1000 CDs Guide)

  3. More than 7 hours to download this file from DepositFiles! and at the second intent. Ufff!
    ...and FileFactory?... no answer after having done character recognition and waited.
    Thank you, Bibixy, for you big efforts to rebuild the content of this blog. Unfortunately the best servers are gone with the wind.
    But I consider all my work and patience to listen to your music a good investment.
