"For its musical values alone this DVD is highly recommendable. For many people, the production values will not be the stumbling block that they are for me and I hope that the disc will generate new admirers for what is one of Handels finest operas".

"Det er en flot og behændigt gennemført scenografi med overdådig kostumering - en sand øjenfryd ... Vokalt er der heller intet at klage over. Jo, René Flemings let nedslidte tekniske perfektion som dog er nydeligt kompenseret af menneskelig varme, intelligens og overskud. Andreas Scholl mestrer fortsat de karakterfulde recitativer ... Også det øvrige sangerhold er brilliant ... Harry Bichet sørger for raske tempi i en opmærksom og vibrato-dæmpet direktion af så velsignet velspillende Metropolitan-orkester".

"Directed from the harpsichord by Harry Bicket, the orchestra delivers a nimble performance ... On stage, Scholl's cool Bertarido and Iestyn Davies's melliflous Unulfo makes a pleasing contrast to Joseph Kaiser's splenetic Grimoaldo ... Fleming, without whom none of this would be happening, is perplexing".

"The Met is now known for its Handel productions; the composer would hardly know what to do with 4,000 spectators ... But the house's Rodelinda ... Makes a very good case for Handel-in-a-big-house ... excellent directed for the small screen by Matthew Diamond ... keeps our interest through 29 arias ... Renée Fleming's ... tone remain creamy ... and acts Rodelinda's predicament well, if as expected ... Countertenor Andreas Scholl embodies great baroque singing, albeit with a voice that occasionally now loses focus ... Baroque specialist Harry Bicket leads a reduced Met orchestra ... with verve, attention to detail, urgency and few requests for heavy vibrato ... All give honest, interesting readings of this beautiful, noble work".
