An important upload. Raymond Leppard's revival of this previously unknown composer included his realisations of La Calisto and L'Ormindo, both done at Glyndebourne and given further prominence in the recordings for Argo. This was not the case for L'Egisto, though it deserved it just as much, as this video (never released commercially) makes fairly clear. Leads are portrayed by Della Jones, James Bowman, Delia Wallis, and Neil Rosenshein, with Patricia O'Neal as Cupid. The plot is outlined before the acts by the director, John Cox. Sound and picture are unfortunately not always in synch.
