"Recording of the week: All five ladies cover themselves in glory when it comes to the vocal fireworks demanded by Vivaldi and his four accomplices, with Romina Basso's mellow, rounded timbre as Dorilla providing an effective contrast to Serena Malfi's brighter, more androgynous sound as her lover Elmiro ... A hearty welcome back, then, for a much-loved series".

"BR Klassik empfiehlt: Genau genommen, finden sich unter den traditionell zahlreichen Arien nicht nur welche von Vivaldi, sondern auch welche von Johann Adolf Hasse und anderen Zeitgenossen. Schließlich haben wir es mit einem "Pasticcio", also mit einer Zusammenstellung verschiedener Musikstücke, zu tun! ... Der Name Diego Fasolis garantiert Seriosität. Und als Leiter des Ensembles "I Barocchisti" sorgt er für mitreißendes Musizieren".

"After a modest pause The Vivaldi Edition has resumed activity with the composer's heroic pastoral Dorilla in Tempe ... The work is a pasticcio with eight arias by other composers including Hasse who contributed three of them ... With an accomplished line-up of solo and choral singers and his I Barocchisti instrumentalists, Diego Fasolis injects vitality and an appropriate sense of melodrama to Vivaldi's score ... Romina Basso brings innocent charm to the title role ... Serena Malfi's Elmiro is splendid, yielding appropriate bravura and moments of heightened passion".
