"... pinpoint vocal interplay and assured comic acting ... a formidable display of coloratura technique and laser-sharp intonation." (The Guardian)
"... the two well-matched singers get exactly right the tricky question of just how much ‘acting’ to do in concert performance ... unflawed and un-ostentatious professionalism [from the orchestra]." (Gramophone)
"... it’s an emotional edginess that makes Bartoli's performance of the cantata Arianna a Naxos so remarkable, an artist running to embrace danger you might say ... The concert begins with Harnoncourt leading his own Vienna Concentus Music through a compelling... performance of Haydn's Oxford Symphony. As ever, it's orchestral balance and the carefully judged dynamics that make a Harnoncourt performance so gripping. The hushed introduction to the opening movement is as tightly coiled as a spring, before it's ambushed by the whole orchestra. It's a delight to watch Harnoncourt working with his own players..."
