Digital Booklet

"Four Stars ... Lezhneva’s bell-like soprano is one of the most exciting emerging voices around and she doesn’t disappoint in this recital ... surely no instrumentalist’s fingers can move faster than Lezhneva’s vocal cords ... there is lots to admire here but also lots to love."
- The Guardian
Young soprano Julia Lezhneva returns to virtuosic Baroque music on this recital album, encompassing the best of Handel’s operatic and religious works from his early years, including the operas Rodrigo and Agrippina, as well as the complete Salve Regina and soprano solo from Dixit Dominus. Recorded when she was 25, she proves to be ideally suited to the soprano arias of the young Handel and has found the perfect partners for this repertoire in Italian period instrument orchestra Il Giardino Armonico led by Giovanni Antonini.
