HIP Handel – Rinaldo // Collegium 1704 @ Théâtre de Caen

[Rinaldo]

This is the recent (2010) production by Collegium 1704. The whole performance (from Mezzo) has been put up on YouTube:

The playing is tremendous and there are few vocal standouts as well, notably Adam Plachetka as Argante and Rewerski's Cara Sposa, augmented by the strings that are literally mourning along with Rinaldo..

[Bulldog]

That's quite a voice that Rewerski possesses - absolutely gorgeous as well as highly expressive.
