Mit James Gilchrist in der Hauptrolle sowie dem Bassisten Konstantin Wolff, der Sopranistin Myung-Hee Hyun und dem Alt Alex Potter brachte Peter Neumann auch hier eine Vokalsolisten-Besetzung zusammen, auf die aufführungspraktisch versierte Intendanten mit Neid blicken. Der vielseitig renommierte Kölner Kammerchor tut sein Übriges, um mit dieser CD an die bisherigen Erfolge mit den Live-Aufnahmen von Händels Saul, Susanna, Belshazzar und Theodora anzuknüpfen: »Händel at his best ...« (Die Zeit) – »First rate ...« (Fanfare) – »Auf höchstem Niveau ...« (FonoForum) – »Exemplarische Uitvoering ...« (Klassike Zaken).
