The guardiand. 19. mar. 2015afafAndrew Clements (musikanmelder)d. 19. mar. 2015"Morte e Sepoltura di Christo dates from 1724, and is in some ways a fusion of the Italianate baroque oratorio with the German passion ... Fabio Biondi interpolates other music into this sequence ... though the rationale for this isn't made clear ... Musically, the performance here feels stylish enough, but the singing sometimes seems dutiful rather than engaged".Læs anmeldelse
BBC music magazine2015 JuneafafBerta Joncus2015 June"Only tenor Anicio Zorzi lets the ensemble down by swelling indiscriminately on lines, but these excesses don't compromise Biondi's profound expression, not just of Caldara's score, but also of human suffering".
Fono Forum2015 JuniafafReinmar Stäbler2015 Juni"Nach der langjährigen Zusammenarbeit mit Dirigenten der historisch informierten Aufführungspraxis ist das Sinfonieorchester aus Stavanger mit dem barocken Idiom vertraut und spielt unter Leitung von Fabio Biondi stilsicher und flexibel. Unter den fünf Solisten ragt die Sopranistin Silvia Frigato mit ihrem schlanken, geschmeidig geführten Timbre heraus".
The gramophone2015 JulyafafDavid Vickers2015 July"On a small number of occasions Biondi might be tinkering with orchestrations a little bit ... Even without all the extra trimmings, this is an essential addition to the Caldara discography".
