CD Reviews

Nicely performed

Steven A. Boggs | Ashford, CT United States | 02/05/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Couperin "Lecons de Tenebres" were originally written for sopranos, but we have come to know the work mostly as performed by counter-tenors, first Alfred Deller, later Rene Jacobs, etc. This performance returns the work to its rightful owners, sopranos, who on this SACD do an excellent job. Other soprano based performances include Nelson and Kirkby on L'Oiseau-Lyre."
