"Still, the ear attunes to it as the performance progresses, and the considerable benefits of the orchestral and choral colour certainly help. If you're interested in the opera, this is your only choice, and is likely to remain so for quite some time".

"The piece might not be a masterpiece but it contains many attractive features ... Anna Dennis sings sweetly and tenderly, Agustín Prunell-Friend is yet another fine haute-contre, and the bass Mathew Brook is a benign Anacreon ... Williams get sprightly singing and playing from his Age of Enlightenment forces".
