Advantages: Fleming is sublime, well sung throughout Disadvantages: Live recording is slightly noticeable in places
recording available - the full opera and a highlights recording. The full recording retails at around £45, so unless you really want the entire opera, I would recommend opting for the highlights recording, which comes in at £14 and includes all of the major arias. I managed to buy mine (the full recording box set) used from amazon for the discount price of £14 and I thoroughly recommend buying opera box sets this way - it saves a lot of money!
Recommended but Handel purists should steer clear! ...

Advantages: Great value craft magazine Disadvantages: Available through 'do crafts' stockists
?do crafts? Creativity is a glossy craft magazine produced by the company ?do crafts? and sold by stockists of their products.
