"Richly scored, Veracini's opera alternates between lyricism, virtuosity, and brilliant instrumental-vocal exchanges ... in Farinelli's role, Ann Hallenberg delivers peak-career bravura ... on the whole this is a superb CD premiere".

"Hallenberg's magnificent singing takes no prisoners. Adriano should not be exaggerated up to a level with Handel's two masterpieces dating from the same year ... but its vividly characterised arias are appreciable on their own ... Snap up Fra Bernardo's limited edition issue while you can".
