"Mazzulli shows why she is a rising star today ... Genaux is equally convincing ... Hasse's scoring makes the accompanying instruments sing even in the densest textures, and the players of Le Musiche Nove bring out this distinctive feature of the composer's writing. Original, sensitive and superbly engineered, this performance surpasses the rival 2010 recording on Ars Lyrica".

"Conducted with fire and sensibility, eloquently sung and characterised, this new recording makes a vivid case for a work that helped launch the most spectacular operatic career of the age".
