Reviews

'[Harry Bicket's] interpretation captivates through its judiciousness and balance, through its sound and its exceptional precision in technical as well as musical respects.'

'Here are two artists-partners making everything audible in the score, with wide-open imagination and gusto.'

'An eclectic mix, then, but with an overarching feeling of vibrant joie de vivre thanks to Marthan’s sparkling pianism.'

Excepcional: 'The magical sense of timing of his playing in the slow pieces, with exquisite ornamentation, is dazzlingly beautiful, with a deep resonance from the instrument ... A very beautiful disc.'

'Hervé Niquet and his period choir and orchestra Le Concert Spirituel give us a luminous vision of Handel’s celebratory anthems.'

'The music is really good ... the voice of mezzo-soprano Eva Zaïcik is always a real delight ...'

'Energising Mozart that tingles with the excitement of the new.'

Diapason d'or: 'The hedonistic duo of Baù and Buccarella builds a captivating and truly unheard-of sound architecture on the viol in the six chosen sonatas. A major milestone in the history of Corellian interpretation, without a doubt, and a young performer who is already indispensable!'

'This gem, like the more polyphonic works, is performed by The Marian Consort under the direction of alto Rory McCleery with that self-effacing beauty of tone, perfection and elegance for which British ensembles are justly famous.'
