"Georg Friedrich Händel verbindet in 'La Resurrezione' dramatische und andachtsvolle Momente voller tiefempfundener Emotion. Harry Bicket und The English Concert gehen ihren Weg einer lebendigen Händel-Pflege mit schönem Ertrag weiter".

"La Resurrezione is the largest and longest piece from Handel's Italian period, an oratorio offering two hours of music originally played by nearly fifty instrumentalists ... Unlike some other commentators, I cannot say that I always find the music here in general to be Handel's best ... The score calls for soloists of the highest calibre. Lucy Crowe's pure, agile, fluty soprano is a joy throughout, as is Iestyn Davies' warm countertenor, especially when it is matched with the viola da gamba ... Tenor Hugo Hymas is a pleasing, light Evangelist who sings his gentle arias suavely and expressively".

"Man får mere mod for pengene. At sangerne er historisk bevidste, gør dem egentlig bare friere. Og de hurtige rytmer som helhed gør det færdige resultat nok så underholdende".

"Recording of the month: La Resurrezione is one of Handel's greatest works, and Harry Bicket has gifted us its greatest recording ... Bicket and his stellar cast embrace Handel's radical approach, turning sacred figures ... into intensely dramatic ones. Handel gave instruments their own actor-like parts, which The English Concert deliver ravishingly ... You will recognise much of this music: Handel stole from earlier works ... The artist also plunder Handel's score, enriching us with a trove of their own ideas".

"Zwischen dem ersten Teil, in dem Engel und Luzifer sich wirkungsvoll bekriegen, und dem strahlenden Licht der Auferstehung im zweiten Teil spnnt das Ensemble The English Concert mit zurückhaltender, dynamisch wie klangfarblich fein differenzierter Gestaltung einen zwingenden Bogen; lediglich fünf Solisten ... ergänzen das ebenso intime wie dramatisch aufgeladene Kammerspiel ... Besonder überzeugen der Countertenor Iestyn Davies ... und der agile Tenor Hugo Hymas".

"Haïm conducts her Concert d'Astrée players with all the flair and expressivity one expects from her ... Apart from my proviso about Tilling's opening aria, the general quality of singing on this new issue tips the balance in its favour among the currently available recordings".
