"With an orchestra that delivers everything from the bucolic to the bacchanal with just the right dose of unforced jollity, and a pantheon of minor deities led astray by Richard Suart's jovial Jupiter and Barry Patterson's superciliously smooth Pluto, the whole production has a real lived-in feel and, in Mary Hegarty's flighty Eurydice, a nymphet - sorry, nymph - virtually to die for. " BBC Music
