Title: the first "period" performance on record
Product review: I believe this was the first recording of the Vienna 1762 Orfeo (i.e. Italian text and alto Orfeo) with period instruments. This is a lovely performance throughout : Jacobs does a brilliant job and Kweksilber makes a very involved Euridice. Go for this one, or alternatively, for Michael Chance (Vivarte)... None of the French "Berlioz revisited" versions recordings existing so far are that good.
