Schumann - Dichterliebe & Liederkreis Op. 24
Mark Padmore & Kristian Bezuidenhout




Revisiting this album.
This is what I wrote before:

Less 'perfect' than Fischer-Dieskau and Moore, but I can sense more passion in both musicians (or is it because I saw them live?).
Anyway, a very good CD this.

My CD is signed by both musicians and remembers me of a wonderful evening in the Chamber Music Room in the Concertgebouw Brugge, some 2 years ago, where they performed 'Die schöne Müllerin' from Schubert.
This Schumann disc is equally nice.

John Potter & Ambrose Field - Being Dufay




This remains an interesting crossover album.
Medieval meets 21st century...

Concerto D'Amsterdam, Klaas Stok
Maarten Engeltjes, counter tenor
Vincent van Laar, organ



I adore these solo cantatas for counter tenor.
This is good, especially the organ.
Is it better than my old standard, Collegium Vocale, with Andreas Scholl? No!
Is it enjoyable? Highly.

Revisiting this album.

Aria and 6 Variations in D Minor, P.193: VII. Variation 6 is pretty cool.

Il Gardellino is an ensemble directed by Marcel Ponseele, "the best oboe player in the world", according to Philippe Herreweghe, conductor of the Collegium Vocale Gent, where Ponseele plays the oboe.
So I guess this opinion might be a little biased, but he truly plays the instrument like the best.
Nice CD this with 2 cantatas of each composer.
We saw them live a couple of months ago.

First album I play with the cable I bought from Dan.
Great album!
