Reginald Mobley - Because - BBC Music Magazine
Countertenor Reginald Mobley has forged a stellar career across Baroque and Classical repertoire, and this outstanding album finds him on glittering form as an exponent of the Spiritual.
Among many highlights, ‘Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child’ fizzes with urgency and quickly establishes Mobley’s extraordinary vocal flair, while his beautifully soft rendition of ‘Steal Away’ perhaps tugs most powerfully at the heartstrings, heightened by Patrick Dupre Quigley’s introspective arrangement based from start to finish around a pulsing pedal note.
