@bf2019 That depends on how you perceive Baroque music. I much prefer von Otter's interpretation exactly because it lacks the transcendental element in it. Baroque music is not about showing off but subjecting oneself completely to a universal communicative language (doctrine of affections) so that the emotions are conveyed to the listener in their purest form and stripped from any subjective colouring.

This version and Dame Janet's are excellent, however all these and similar have been completely eclipsed by the Live recordings in the 2008 season of Vivica Genaux....her general interpretation and off the earthly scale of her daCapo simply put the Transcendent Joy of Handel at a wholly different level...probably the best with an actually bad recording is here: /watch?v=BRk-TbaXTQA from 4:30 is beyond any existing recording : even Joyce DiDonato's red dress recording...the current best...

Unfortunately Ariodante is not often performed. You have to do some travelling. Since I bought Ariodante I am a real Händel addict

One of the best performances EVER of this piece! Thank you!

......no words......The best studio version I know, by a contemporary singer. I like DI DONATO and GRAHAM too, but this terrific duo, VON OTTER - MINKOWSKI, is really wonderful. All is perfect !
-
god this is by far one the hardest arias i"ve ever seen. von otter completely nails it...
This is among the very best singing I+ve ever heard, all categorizes.

I heard her and Minkowski perform this live in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw. It was the experience of a lifetime
