Arias and overtures from Florence to Paris

"There is much agreeable music in this sequence of overtures and arias ... Maria Grazia Schiavo displays a nimble coloratura technique, phrases elegantly and makes much of her words ... The Tuscan period band Auser Musici are robust rather than specially subtle partners".

"These are the first performances I have heard by Auser Musici, technically and musically a notably accomplished original-instrument ensemble ... the problem is compounded by the disappointingly generic, colourless timbre of the featured singer".
