Reviews

'... the majestic Véronique Gens plays off against the impetuous Sandrine Piau.'

'The brilliant virtuosity of the soloist is captured by a recording that ideally resolves the problem of balance between the delicate instrument and the orchestra.'

'For three quarters of an hour, Grigorian and her pianist keep you captivated with their fine choice from this repertoire. A fantastic album ...'

'This is a baroque celebration to enjoy, even after Easter. Perfect recording too.'

'Equally at ease in the classical and baroque repertoires, the soprano pays tribute to Handel's heroines and joins forces with her colleague Véronique Gens to pay tribute to the memory of two forgotten pre-romantic singers. A double success.'

'Chamber works from the beginning and end of the composer’s career combine with a modern echo in this elegant collection.'

'François Lazarevitch and Justin Taylor join forces to bring to these works a liveliness mingled with suppleness. They are captured in an acoustic as present as it is airy.'

'A journey that is both musical and educational.'

'The sound is genuine, authentic Morricone. The sweetness of his music, however, is not painless, rounded. It illuminates lost youth, lost loves, even lost countries. It's music that will endure.'
