Thanks to several Eloquence releases, the pioneering work of Anthony Lewis in the field of Baroque opera is now readily available: The Fairy Queen (482 7449) of Purcell, Handel’s Semele (482 5055) and a compilation albums of Handel arias (482 4759) were all critically acclaimed at the time of their original release in the 1950s and 60s, and they have gained a new and appreciative audience through the new Eloquence remasterings. Further Lewis reissues are forthcoming.
