"The two names 'Handel' and 'Pushee' are sufficient to send a shiver down a music lover's spine and this recording does not disappoint." (Amazon.com)

"The two names 'Handel' and 'Pushee' are sufficient to send a shiver down a music lover's spine and this recording does not disappoint. All the wonderful Handel arias are represented. The quality of the recording is exceptional, even though it is now some years old. If the incredibly beautiful music of Handel causes your heart to hesitate for just a second and brings a lump to your throat, then the combination of Handel and Pushee will make the tears flow freely; but it will also refresh and restore you. This is a wonderful recording if you enjoy the Baroque and the pure voice of a countertenor."
