Anne Sofie Von Otter has, in recent years, sometimes oversung in Baroque music, but her tone here is ideal-heroic and powerful yet pure. Lynne Dawson is simply spectacular throughout, her coloratura, tone, and emotional range being everything one could wish for. Contralto Ewa Podles makes a genuinely menacing arch-villain in a role taken too often by flimsy falsettists. There is no better recording of a Handel opera out there.

Les Musiciens du Louvre (literally The Musicians of the Louvre) is a French period instrument ensemble, formed in 1982. Originally based in Paris, since 1996 it has been based in the Couvent des Minimes in Grenoble. The Guardian considers it one of the best orchestras in the world.

Les Musiciens du Louvre relocated to Grenoble after 1996, where they are associates at the Maison de la Culture de Grenoble. Minkowski's career focus has shifted from an initial specialized interest in the Baroque to a wider interest in opera. He conducted Mozart's Idomeneo in 1996 at the Opéra National de Paris and debuted his Die Entführung aus dem Serail at the Salzburg Festival. He has also performed and recorded critically acclaimed works by Jacques Offenbach: Orphée aux Enfers, La belle Hélène and La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein, along with the Concerto militaire for cello and orchestra in G, with Jérôme Pernoo (cello). As well as Les Musiciens du Louvre, Minkowski is active in the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, the Berlin Philharmonic, Orchestre de Paris, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Mozarteum Salzburg and the Staatskapelle Dresden.

The Swedish singer Anne Sofie von Otter has conquered the classical music world, singing the greatest mezzo soprano roles in the most prestigious opera houses. After her recordings of Berlioz's Les Nuits d'été with the founder of the ensemble Les Musiciens du Louvre-Grenoble, she joins forces again with Marc Minkowski and opens this concert with the Wagner Wesendonck-Lieder. Thus, this programme is an opportunity to celebrate the bicentenary of Richard Wagner's birth. This Major piece of the Lieder repertoire tells the story of the impossible yet passionate love of the composer.
