About

The re-release of this classic recording of Gluck’s Orfeo and Euridice was the first recording of the Vienna 1762 Orfeo, with an Italian text and an alto playing Orfeo, recorded on period instruments.
 
This lovely performance features Rene Jacobs, now himself a successful conductor and baroque specialist, as a very communicative and precise Orpheus. This recording also features the Dutch soprano Marjanne Kweksilber as a very involving Euridice.
 
This Diapason awarded recording is now available as a two for one set.
