"Fagioli und seine Mitstreiter [zeigen] die ganze Bandbreite der Gesangkünste des Caffarelli auf ... Blendende Virtuosität plus gestalterische Noblesse vereint Franco Fagioli auf sich ... Grossartig interagiert der Solist mit dem Orchester ... Erlesener Wohlklang und fesselnde Attacke - zwischen diesen beiden Polen liegt die enorme Bandbreite von Il Pomo d'Oro".

"This disc pays thrilling homage to one of the greatest castrati, Gaetano Majorano. a.k.a. Caffarelli ... The Argentine singer Franco Fagioli ... is probably better equipped to take on high-lying music written for castrati than any other male singer on disc ... He fields a reliable trill and his marksmanship in staccatos is astounding ... He's most impressive in his long-breathed legato ... Il Pomo d'Oro performs immaculately ... The recorded sound is terrific".
