The moment that grabs me in this recording is the soprano's "Dulcissime"
near the end. Some time ago I wrote here about my disappointment with
other versions, including some that seemed downright blowsy, enough to
sour my mood, and then I rediscovered this one, where the soprano's high
light voice makes that moment ravishing. (The packaging on the three
Trionfi credits four sopranos, so I don't know her name.)
