This reminds me that I also bought a Vivaldi recording of rather unkown arias by the unlikely combination of Cecilia Bartoli and Il Giardino Armonico. Now here is a weird hybrid product. Bartoli sings *belcanto* with heavy vibrato and IGA play *Hipper than HIP*. Not for purists, this one. But I happen to *love* it. I *love* Bartoli's voice and her astonishing pianissimi followed by passionate forte's and I think no ensemble plays Vivaldi like IGA does and I can stand the combination too. Does anybody know this recording? I'm very interested to know what other list members think of this one. Philip
