Awards and reviews

December 2011

the choice of title is justified by the thoughtful, well-vocalized performance of Cornell MacNeil...MacNeil is not short of power in portraying triumph or anger and convincingly expresses the king's fear after the thunderbolt...Siepi finds the authoritative strength of Zaccaria, his timbre at its darkest, but some upper notes are grey.
