“This release should bring joy to any fan of Domenico Scarlatti.  The three vocalists… are perfectly cast [and] the orchestra plays with engaging energy and dynamic contrast.” —Early Music America
“The first note of Richard Savino’s mandolin blooming above the dulcet chords of the lute-stop of Dirst’s harpsichord brought a smile not just to my face, but also to my soul.” —David Yearsley, CounterPunch
