Performed by one of the most popular Bulgarian chamber ensembles, directed by the great Bulgarian conductors Emil Tabakov and Vassil Kazandjiev. Though less known than "Water Music" the overture and dances from the opera "Alcina" are not less fascinating. The brilliant performance corresponds to the greatness of Handel's work and meets the requirements even of the most critical admirers of classical music.
