Handel: Giulio Cesare / Minkowski

Marijana Mijanovic (Giulio Cesare), Magdalena Kožená (Cleopatra), Anne Sofie von Otter (Sesto), Charlotte Hellekant (Cornelia), Bejun Mehta (Tolomeo), Alan Ewing (Achilla) Les Musiciens du Louvre, Marc Minkowski

"Marijana Mijanovic is impressive, with a full, flexible bottom-end to the range that puts plenty of counter-tenors to shame...she's able to knock out the more virtuosic arias with impressive fire. As Cleopatra, Magdalena Kožená is superb, with real beauty of tone and impressive ornamentation, never over-sentimentalising her romantic moments."
