Listening to Handel and Vivaldi

Just wrote a review on Cleveland Classical of a concert by Apollo's Fire, Cleveland's baroque orchestra. It featured the wonderful singing of male soprano/countertenor Michael Maniaci. See a sample of that singing!

"Male soprano"? I doubt that the singer refers to himself in such a way. "Countertenor" is sufficient.

@ anonymous: among many such clearly sanctioned references, see his cd of Mozart: http://www.amazon.com/Mozart-Arias-Soprano-Michael-Maniaci/dp/B0030GBT0G
