Sheer delight 20 Aug 2010
Format:Audio CD
This CD is a lovely companion to the first anthology of Auvergne songs recorded by Véronique Gens. In fact, it's worth availing of the offer to buy the two CDs together. In addition to the Auvergne songs, the CD also contains selections form other folk song arrangements by Canteloube, including the familiar "Aupres de la rose."

As with the first CD, Véronique Gens's singing is positively luminous and a joy to the ear. Highly recommended.

Gorgeous 20 Jan 2011
By G.D. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Joseph Canteloube's lush, opulent, often sentimental take on folk music from the Auvergne area, the Chants d'Auvergne, remains very popular, but we rarely get any chance to hear any of the composer's other music. That, of course, makes this disc particularly welcome. In addition to some of the favorites from the d'Auvergne cycle not included on the first volume in this series, we get a six Chants de France and the Triptyque (on poems by Roger Frêne) composed in 1914. The Triptyque clearly shows the connection between Canteloube and his (near) contemporaries Debussy and Ravel. While not perhaps containing the most memorable of themes, the Triptyque is as expected a gorgeously scored piece of impressionism - the third song is particularly evocative.

The Chants de France is as richly filled with wonderfully memorable melodies and gorgeously opulent textures as the Chants d'Auvergne. The six songs are surprisingly variegated, containing the expected wistfulness and tender nostalgia, but also humor and wit. Veronique Gens's singing is radiantly beautiful throughout, sounding effortless and unaffected but also sufficiently varied in character to capture the subtle shifts and developments of moods and atmospheres, and always with the utmost sensitivity to the text. The Orchestre National de Lille-Région Nord/Pas-de-Calais under Serge Baudo plays with all the color, richness and subtlety one could hope for. The sound quality is very good as well; very strongly recommended.

This is almost as good as volume one. However, it is hard to go wrong when Veronique Gens is singing.

Texts and Translations are Available Online at Naxos - and the Performances are Grand 21 Jan 2008
By J Scott Morrison - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
While I understand customer reviewer Mr Rockwell's disappointment that the texts for the Canteloube songs are not included in the Naxos booklet, there is a note on the jewel case that indicates that texts and translations are available online at www.naxos.com/libretti/570338.htm and even though this is a bit cumbersome, the texts are not so voluminous as to make download of them a difficult process. Unfortunately, however, this solution is being offered more and more regularly by the issuers of vocal music. Ah, for the old days of thick booklets or libretto inserts.

As for the performances, they are of the same stellar quality as those in the first volume of this series: Joseph Canteloube: Chants d'Auvergne. Gens is a beautiful and poetic singer and she is given excellent orchestral support by Serge Baudo and the Orchestre National de Lille-Région/Pas-de-Calais.

Also included are Canteloube's 'Triptyque', set to texts by Roger Frêne and in a style closer to Chausson than the Auverge songs. And also one hears six of Canteloube's settings of Chants de France (beginning with the familiar 'Auprès de ma blonde', which are similar in style to the Songs of the Auvergne.

Recommended both for the performances and the budget price.
