Wow, this is much faster than Harnoncourt! Savall also has drums playing prominently; did he add them to the orchestration? I like it. I think Savall's players are better, too, but overall I think Harnoncourt is more imaginative and has a better singer in the Prologue. What do you think? Surely this is one of the greatest openings in all opera.

Many thanks! I listened to the Garrido, which I find superbly played but too fast; I also miss the accompanying drums in the Garrido version.

The first part of the version of Garrido is already uploaded by the user OedipusColoneus. The name of the file is:
