The enduring popularity of Rossini's operas is a testament to their wit and inventiveness, every overture a superb portrait of each ensuing drama. There is none more popular than the farcical comedy of Il barbiere di Siviglia, but themes of flirtation and disguise can also be found in Il Turco in Italia, contrasting with the heroism and revenge of Armida and the cunning exploits of Le Comte Ory. This edition, of which this is the final instalment, has gained wide critical acclaim, with Volume 2 (8.570934) described as "an unalloyed winner" by ClassicsTodaycom.

'This is the final instalment of what has been a fantastic series showcasing Rossini's overtures…the Prague Sinfonia Orchestra, conducted by Christian Benda, come highly recommended.' –The Northern Echo, 13/02/2014, Gavin Engelbrecht

'I have been enjoying this series of Rossini's Overtures from the first Volume. The nagging fear that later volumes might show some drop in the quality of the music or the performance was not realised in the second and third Volumes, and it disappears entirely with this triumphant conclusion to a very enjoyable series…This is no doubt due not only to the quality of Rossini's invention but also to the quality of the performances alert and spontaneous sounding, and recorded in a very suitable acoustic.' –MusicWeb International
