专辑介绍 ：
亨德尔的清唱剧《赛墨勒》，HWV58，作于1744年。剧情取自希腊神话。赛墨勒是忒拜国美丽的公主，宙斯对她产生狂热的爱。宙斯的妻子赫拉因为嫉妒，变成赛墨勒奶妈，哄骗赛墨勒，让宙斯以神的面目来看她，宙斯为了满足赛墨勒的要求而显形，导致电闪雷鸣，把赛墨勒劈成灰烬。宙斯悲伤难忍，从灰烬中找出赛墨勒的胎儿，将其抚养长大，即为酒神狄俄尼索斯。狄俄尼索斯下地狱救母亲，将其奉养于奥林匹斯山上。 ~摘自“音乐圣经”
该版本获企鹅三星推荐，并获1994年Grammy古典类最佳歌剧唱片。
This magnificent performance is without a doubt among the top two or three Handel opera recordings in the catalog. John Nelson outdoes even the period instrument competition, conducting with a vitality and freshness that sweeps all before it. Kathleen Battle is a great Semele (if listening to this woman sing "Myself I Will Adore" isn't a classic example of typecasting, then what is?). But the real palm must go to Marilyn Horne as the jealous Juno, who simply stops the show with her two arias (she sings Ino as well). A very great recording. --David Hurwitz
The best show in London at the moment is Covent Garden's "Semele" and if your pocket doesn't run to the seat prices there, the closest experience available is this recording . . . It's a non-stop stream of gorgeous arias and choruses . . . Kathleen Battle and Michael Chance are among the top-flight singers.
