Reviews

Choc de Classica: 'Throughout the thirty-one tracks, one savours the choreographic rhetoric of Théotime Langlois de Swarte ... In this he is more than accompanied by Justin Taylor.'

Album of the Week: 'There are only two compositions, but the wealth of inspiration and colour is completely sufficient ... the disc is realised with the utmost care and impresses with its sound.'

Record of the Week: 'Their Brahms might have you questioning your expectations with its colours and playfulness, while their Bartok is visceral, mischievous and magical.'

'Glorious horns ... it's some of the most exhilarating Haydn around at the moment.'

'This appears to be their first recording, and it is, by any reasonable standard, a success ... The recording was made in the new Pierre Boulez Saal and is exemplary.'

Disc of the Week: '... he’s clearly a countertenor to rank with the best, possessed of not just a fine vocal instrument but also deep musical intelligence.'

'Here you can hear two volcanoes that hurl their magma into the world with primal force.'

'This disc is an important milestone in the rediscovery of a composer whose art rivals that of the eminent contrapuntalists of the Renaissance ...'

'... if this pairing appeals to you, this disc is definitely a worthwhile investment. Duly recommended.'
