 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
"...Keith Lewis fills the title role with dulcet ardor. The choral work is superb. In sum, a big screen, Technicolor production in the manner of Solti's 1981 neon account with von Stade, Riegel, and van Dam, which the present set rivals keenly without quite overtopping...high-water marks for general brilliance and sonic immediacy in the discography of the last 15 years or so and thus may be recommended with more or less enthusiasm."

- Adrian Corleonis, Fanfare Issue 22:3 (Jan/Feb 1999)
