"There are no weak links in the cast, and lovers of baroque opera should not need to hesitate".

"Opera choice: This beguiling early opera by Francesco Cavalli is given an equally beguiling performance in this premiere recording made in the opera theatre at the Palace of Versailles ... Dumestre provides both sensitive and spirited direction. All the singers give superlative accounts, with near-perfect Italian diction".

"Gramophone collector: A fair number of ... imaginative musical splashes during Le Poème Harmonique's warmly affectionate performance do not appear in the manuscript score ... Cavalli's five-part instrumental writing does not indicate scoring, and Dumestre mixes things up with passages for recorders ... and he uses cornett and harp during Clori's entrance ... Lidio and Clori are sung rapturously by Zachary Wilder and Sophie Junker, and their supple voices achieve a vivid timbral distinction from Marc Mauillon's melodramatic Egisto and Ambroisine Bré's plangent Climene".
