Rezensionen

J. Hagestedt in stereoplay 12 / 01: »Auf ein Libretto von Charles Jennens hat Händel 1745 ein ebenso selten aufgeführtes wie an Schönheiten reiches, dramatisch wirkungsvolles Oratorium komponiert, das die biblische Geschichte aus dem fünften Kapitel des Buches Daniel unter Einbeziehung nichtbiblischer Texte bis zur Eroberung Babylons durch die Perser weitererzählt. Wie in seinen voraufgegangenen Händel-Produktionen für MD-G vertraut Peter Neumann in dieser als Konzertmitscnitt vorgelegten Einspielung wieder auf die vorzüglichen Ensembles des Kölner Kammerchors und des Collegium Cartusianum.«
