« This ranks among the most intelligent and striking recital discs of recent years. Spanish counter-tenor Xavier Sabata explores the worlds of Handel's villains — the tyrants, hypocrites and sensualists who are integral to his dramatic and moral vision, but whose music is rarely heard outside of the theatre. [...] Sabata has one of the richest of counter-tenor voices, his warmth of tone carrying intimations of decadence. A perceptive vocal actor, he gets to the essence of his protagonists. [...] The beauty of Sabata's singing is breathtaking, however unsettling his characters. [...] Add in to the mix exceptional playing from Il Pomo d'Oro under its conductor Riccardo Minasi, and you have something very special. Matchless, and highly recommended.»
