Gramophone 'The sheer ferocity of the vocal writing and its erotic allure are awe-inspiring, as is the close gearing of bel canto style to musical and psychological ends.' The Observer This recording 'boasts a fine cast, including a weighty yet agile Jennifer Larmore as the general, Falliero, and the clean youthful-sounding Majella Cullagh as his lover Bianca.'
