"As a great fan of the viola da gamba music of Marin Marais - and a supporter of an Australian project to perform the complete chamber music works of Marin Marais [...]-it is timely to have one of his complete operas now available on disk. Marais, of course, was a member of Lully's orchestra at the Court of Louis the Sun King, and learned much from him in terms of form and orchestration. The recorded sound on this valuable recording is clear and the singing is wonderful. Herve Niquet and Le Concert Spirituel are to be congratulated for reviving Sémélé and bringing it to a broader audience at a time when interest in French baroque opera is on the rise."
