Nikolaus Harnoncourt's Handel oratorios have had mixed success. The best of them is probably Belshazzar, but this isn't bad either. The problem is that the performance is cut (which is pointless for home listening, however desirable in live performance), and it faces brutal competition from two other superb versions--Raymond Leppard's on Erato, and Harry Christophers's on Collins. Under the circumstances, this set is a clear third choice. --David Hurwitz
