 Carolyn Watkinson Forum @ Soundbug
I think Carolyn Watkinson's "When I am Laid in Earth" is perhaps the most passionate and heartfelt rendition ever.
When I hear her, I don't picture a contemporary singer in an opera, I am in the period in which it was written, eavesdropping from a distant column.
I think Carolyn Watkinson had been a rare meteor in baroque music i still regret.

Carolyn Watkinson is superb as the alto, and David Thomas is just terrific as the bass and does "The Trumpet Shall Sound" to a turn.

Recit.: 'Vanti, O Cara'/Aria: 'Sforzano A Piangere' - Carolyn Watkinson
I can't think of a better cast list than Emma Kirkby as the shepherd Acis, Carolyn Watkinson as the nymph, and David Thomas as the bad guy cyclops.
This 1708 Italian serenata has been overshadowed by the 1716 English masque Acis and Galatea but in fact there is only one aria shared between the two - they are two separate works with different atmospheres.

 Handel - Messiah / Emma Kirkby, Judith Nelson, Carolyn Watkinson, Paul Elliott, David Thomas, Christopher Hogwood, ...
Some high points: Emma Kirkby's "And Who May Abide" in Part I; Carolyn Watkinson's "He Was Despised" in Part II - one thinks that she may start crying at any time, as she seems to feel himself the pain that Holy Mary felt herself; David Thomas' "The Trumpet Shall Sound" in Part III.
Don't be fooled by the "Sung in italian" on the box.
